    I’m curious why especially lemmy.ml wouldn’t wait for full release - surely after 6 RCs the full release is imminent?

    Or of course, they’re stress testing it. Makes sense enough.

    Wonder if I can finally sub to lemmy.ml communities…

      lemmy.ml is official developer instance, makes moste sense to test it out here after dev servers.

      It’s probably a combination of testing at scale on a server they control and wanting to get these features out so they can be iterated before a bunch of new users show up.

        It’s just so odd that only lemmy.ml communities seem to cause this. Lemmy.world is around as big or bigger and no issue there.

          I think lemmy.ml has more posts, comments, likes in the database due to historic reasons - and the backend is timing out, PostgreSQL not keeping up to application timeout. I have seen the problem on Beehaw, Lemmy.world when they are busy and throwing nginx 500 errors on their front page.

        I can confirm that.

        Not long after you upgraded, I upgraded, and was able to successfully subscribe to things here.

        But… not now. /sadface.
