PSA: Most admins don't have any better access to Lemmy than you do if the server is struggling. Please be patient. (lemmy.ml)

Most admins on Lemmy instances do not have backend access. That is generally reserved for the server owner/head admin only. So if your instance is going on- and offline intermittantly due to server load, admins will also be having a hard time getting on the site to moderate or really do anything. The server owners may be able to use the backend command line to do a tiny amount of moderation, but it's very much not intended to be used in that way.

I say this to remind everyone to please be patient on the 1st, there will be a massive influx of traffic, servers will go down, and admins may not be able to get on the site and moderate effectively until things settle down at least a little. We're trying our best.
