I am curious what % of user can the current lemmy instances take in from reddit

Can fediverse take on 30%, 50% or 100%?

For start, what are lemmy.ml and lemmy.world doing, are they just keep scaling up?

Thanks for hosting Lemmy.world! Does Lemmy use a database? Until the software gets horizontal scaling capability, could we use a central RDS so the load isn’t on the EC2 instance’s CPU? Then we can use load balancing between multiple instances that pull from the same DB? Obviously, the db instance is still a limiting factor.

It all runs on 1 physical server in docker containers. Scaling the Postgres database is least of my worries (I am a DBA) :-)
