bad gateway errors are only caused by server issues. Can't do much about it as someone using tge site but wait for the server admins to fix the issue.

Yup. There's not much I can do on Connect's side, all of the servers are getting hammered with traffic. I added retries to some of the API calls but if the server isn't responding no amount of retries will help. I'd expect things to settle down eventually.
This is pretty much what I figured. Just losing my mind a bit when it loads fine and then disappears as I'm reading it for seemingly no reason lol.
I'm expecting the growing pains to continue for a while so I'm not that worried.
I'm getting this quite a bit as well. Ironically, I got it on this post as well 😂 
I dunno... I'm having a hard time doing anything on the app, or the website.
The servers are basically on fire.
I do worry if the admins can keep up with additional server capacity. Or if the plan is just to wait for things to revert to the ghost town it was a few weeks ago...
Lemmy.world was, for awhile, rebooting their server on a timer every 15 minutes to un-break it. I'm not sure if that stopped after they upgraded the software over the weekend.
it concerns me as a whole, it's been happening for 3 weeks now, I'm chalking it down as the backbone just can't keep up with it, there's quite a few open issues on the Github(the lemmy one) for optimization and performance errors, I honestly don't think Lemmy is going to be able to handle the influx of users at a large scale without some of those issues being addressed. I'm going to hold out but, I can forsee people deciding it's not worth having to wait 40 seconds for a comment to post, or having to refresh multiple times due to Api errors. Hopefully they can get it straightened out
for point of ref; this comment it took 70 seconds to post using connect, and when I tried to go back to home I was met with the 500 error
I'm getting the same thing on Connect
I was just experiencing this too while using Thunder. I switched over to wefwef and it’s having any easier time fetching posts currently.
That's just coincidence. Bad gateway errors are cause by server side stability issues or misconfiguration
