Hi there! I’ve been trying to improve the situation for the past few hours. I managed to disable CF Protection, and as you can see, I’m gradually allowing traffic from the fediverse. There may still be delays in deliveries and posts for some time. If anything is particularly troublesome, please let me know through the contact form. Sorry for the temporary blackouts. New possibilities have emerged, which I’d like to discuss with you soon. Now I need a few hours for a nap, shower, and I have to grab something to eat because I can’t survive on bananas only :P
And look at this!

Just please be understanding towards the new admins. This is still a prototype, and what we’re doing here is meant to yield results in the future. I’m doing everything I can to get back to patching critical things in the code as quickly as possible. Have fun! :)
Oooh and You can send me your domain name ideas via pm.

Exactly, it’s what Calckey, Pixelfed, and even Mastodon did when their meta instances were being overloaded with new sign ups
It also confused the shit out of newbies who neither know nor care what an instance is and find the idea too outside of their existing comprehension or level of caring to wrap their heads around.
If it’s too hard for you to click a “join a different instance/server” button and select any that’s available, then I just don’t know what to tell you. It’s not that it’s confusing, people just got extremely lazy when all they have to do is open of the 5 mega-platforms like Twitter and Reddit to access everything.
