I think that the dev and some volunteers at kbin.social has done a lot of work on scaling up that instance, but even so, kbin.social will probably hit hard-to-fix scaling issues at some point. It’s also a big instance, like lemmy.world.
I’d been looking at another (presently small) US-based one-person kbin instance, was planning to hop over if it stayed up to help spread load, but it looks like it went down.
I suppose that once a number of instances have a track record of staying up for N months and with their uptime records established, it’ll be easier to figure out what instances are good alternatives, are likely around for the long haul, and which ones will vanish in the wind.
