Are the registry procedures causing the problem? Since most of my communities are on lemmy.ml, wouldn’t I still be using lemmy.lm’s bandwidth? Or is it more crucial to ensure that the communities are distributed more evenly across different instances?

    Yeah, the faster Lemmy will figure out an account migration the better, i applied for Lemmy.ml account before I’ve noticed the overload post, now I’m stuck with an intense that’s a bit more laggy than I like

    Just my thoughts from a random user

    • Have communities work similar to how RAID works with drives. It spans across multiple trusted instances, with data mirrored or striped to each. If one goes down, a new instance could become trusted and have the data rebuild on that instance. This would create redundancy and prevent one instance from becoming the main or default.

    • Allow similar with user accounts or allow instance migration.
