I’m the sysadmin for beehaw.org and our user-base has almost tripled in 24 hours. Our site has been crashing so much over this time period.
We do have some volunteers that are trying to figure out a reasonable solution for when this happens again four weeks from now.
Do you have any recommendations?
On my instance at least, spinning on click normally meant issue with email submission. But there wasn’t any good feedback like “failed to send email”
No issue using the same email server and naming structure for signup on beehaw (as far as user email field data goes).
