500 Server Error? (beehaw.org)

Hi guys - I keep getting 500 Server Error. Is this because the server is getting overwhelmed? Too many new users?

It's the Reddit hug of death...it will clear up over the next couple of days.

All of the bees in our server are tired from carrying so many posts back and forth.

Haha!

I'm getting frequent errors too. Plus disappearing comments. I'd imagine it's because of the increased traffic.

Plus disappearing comments

i was wondering about this. i see posts with like 6 or so comments, but I only see 2 get loaded.

edit: problem solved. thx!

it's possible comments disappearing or not displaying may be a result of your language settings, which are an... admittedly intuitive part of lemmy right now. if you suspect this is the case/haven't already checked: go to your settings, scroll down to Languages, and then make sure you have "Undetermined" checked.

Ohhhh. That fixed it, thanks. Definitely something that Lemmy can improve on because it's rather confusing. I couldn't even see one of my previous comments anymore because it threw an error. Now it works again after re-selecting Undetermined.

Edit: Also not seeing the other errors anymore 👍🏻
