   I know that there's been intermittent stability issues with mastodon.social and mastodon.online recently. We're working on improving our infrastructure to address this.

     @Gargron Do you guys run on a VM cluster or just a server cluster behind load balancers?

     @Gargron
     Can you say anything about the causes of the instability? Is it simply that there is a great deal of legitimate usage, or, is it the result of DDOS attacks?

     I wish you luck, but...

     If I got to pick a solution approach to donate money towards supporting, I think it would be a rebalancing tool to help people migrate away from overloaded (or otherwise unstable) servers... (#CSB)

     New idea of OSS problem (apart from the financial model): In theory, anyone can modify the code, but in practice, it's dangerous to modify old code. Doesn't matter much if it's by a better or worse programmer, or even if it's your own old code.

     As promised, mastodon.online infrastructure upgraded and is now easier to scale, mastodon.social is next on the list. Our mod team grows as well!

     @Gargron It would be very interesting to read in an article how you and the team did the migration to k8s in detail. Especially about the practical experiences, obstacles, the sizing of the worker nodes and learnings.
     Obviously this is interesting for other Mastodon operations teams.
     But also for the migration of other distributed systems there is a lot to learn.
