Not literally though. But I have to say it's giving me nostalgic feeling of old reddit when it would struggle to keep up with inflight of new users/activities.
The community here feels significantly more wholesome than Reddit in recent months. It's nice seeing a lot of meaningful conversation without hate and spam.
I don't want to sound like a cynic but so was reddit in its early years. We were all rallying for a cause on the great digg migration. It felt great to be part of that movement (or whatever you want to call that). I do hope Lemmy keeps this spirit up for as long as it can.
