I’ll be shutting down lemmy.click, I don’t know exactly when. The database continues to grow, and I’m not going to upgrade the VPS any further. I’ll leave it running until the disk fills, which I expect to be in the next few weeks:
I suggest everyone interested in continuing to use Lemmy find an alternate instance to call home. There are many more to choose from since lemmy.click was created.
I apologise for the inconvenience, lemmy.click was within the first 100 Lemmy instances. At the time I spun it up, growth was much slower.
Sad to hear, but thanks for the transparency! And for hosting this far.
For everyone else who’s considering to move to another instance: I found these related GitHub issues:
- https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/506
- https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985
- https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3040
There is also a “Subscribed communities copyer”, though it did not work for me: https://sh.itjust.works/post/53184
Looks like memory exhaustion may be what kills the site. The lemmy database is using more and more RAM, will see how long it works for…
Thank you for hosting!
