Yeah, I think this is sort of like email, if a message isn't delivered (due to the other server being down) it will automatically try again later and then give up after a certain amount of attempts/time.

Ernie is correct. There are many servers that are no longer reachable, or are temporarily down. Each time your server tries to connect, and it fails, it increases the count.
If reaching a server errors out long enough, your server will just stop trying to reach it. Self-healing, as it were.
These are background jobs that run on a schedule.
I'm not an expert either, but your numbers pretty much match mine. So, all good.
Don't click any buttons!
Extremely large instances end up fighting these Sidekiq queues and sometimes need extra servers because they back up. But you need an awful lot of accounts before that will become an issue.

Hello Fediverse 👋
Anybody know what this screen means? It's from the dashboard functions of admin tools.
Is something broke that I need to fix? 🫣🤔
