every single time I send a beehaw link to my wife on discord, we get 502 error for 5-10 minutes after, as if we were being rate limited? I'm a bit lost what's going on (beehaw.org)

Ah, so it's your fault! /s

More seriously, it's not just you. I'm getting them as well and I'm pretty sure everyone is. They usually resolve pretty quickly though. I think we're just getting a lot more users than we ever have in the past, and the server bees are struggling to keep up, especially since they have to work around a lot of jankiness with the Lemmy software.

It kind of reminds me of Reddit when I first started using it. Reddit downtime was basically a meme, it crashed often enough that there was a whole "downtime bananas" trend where people would draw stuff on bananas during downtimes and post them when the site came back up.

That's really cute, actually. What a nice little community activity!
