The network Burggit is on is experiencing performance issues. I’d encourage everyone to use shota.nu for right now if you can. I talked to the host about this and evidently it’s an upstream issue with the datacenter.
The datacenter is refusing to help out with this and thinks everything is working fine so there’s plans for migrating to a new datacenter that are underway sometime soon. So in the meantime, I’m afraid we need to just grin and bear it.
Lemmy errors out if the NFS mount is nonresponsive. It doesn’t like not being able to access the huge swathe of pictures that are stored on the server. I’ve switched the NFS mount to TCP and have it retry the connection every second in an effort to mitigate the severe packet loss.
As I was composing this, the packet loss shot up to 90% so I don’t think even that will help…
That’s really all I can do for right now. I wish there was more that I could do to resolve this… 😔
Seems like the server was down for a bit (or there was packet loss mentioned above) earlier. I tried checking the Kbin and Matrix space for any updates on whether it was down for maintenance, but both also failed to load. Do the Lemmy, Kbin, and Matrix space all sit on the same box/server (such that an outage on one causes all three to go down), or could the issue have been on my end?
There’s been a DDoS hitting my host. It’s not directed at us since it’s hitting the /24 subnet. Not sure if you are on my home server, but I suggest getting an alt if you want to get on there, if this is the case. I can’t decouple the Matrix home server from the Burggit VPS because the domain is needed to point at the Burggit VPS.
