Hot take: the only reason mastodon.social keeps crashing is to convince us of the fragility of centralized systems

@nolan so, a decentralised instance “crashes,” and that convinces us of the fragility of centralised systems? (head explodes, sorry!) LOL.

@david It's the biggest instance on the system, and also seems to be the most fragile. Although it could also be because it's getting DDosed due to media coverage, not sure.

In any case that toot was 95% joking; Eugene is a hero and is doing amazing work.
