Planned outage 7/12 @ 12:00am ET

There will be a short 5 to 10-minute outage as I scale down the environment. I was ambitious about the growth of this community during the Rexidus / Rexxit. The server sizes for discuss.online way outpace the daily load. Usage is typically well below 5% on all servers. Lemmy has become much more memory efficient, and I've made other adjustments to improve performance. Memory usage hangs around 10% for the backend and 30% for front-end servers.

The target is to reduce to better align with current donation payments. Server costs are over 10x the monthly donations right now.

Let me know if you have any issues. Please, remember to check https://status.discuss.online for updates during the outage.

Thanks, Jason
