At the time of writing, Lemmyworld has the second highest number of active users (compared to all lemmy instances)
Also at the time of writing, Lemmyworld has >99% uptime.
By comparison, other lemmy instances with as many users as Lemmyworld keep going down.
What optimizations has Lemmyworld made to their hosting configuration that has made it more resilient than other instances’ hosting configurations?

Yeah, I get it. Naming optics aside, it seems an instance with a lot of headroom relative to others, with a capable team. Would be near the top of my word-of-mouth options in spite of the idiosyncratic name.
It’s been running a little slow today though so maybe not as much headroom as you think
