A big part of the fediverse is that it's decentralized, one server going down doesn't mean you can't see anything, the rest of the network still exists and there are still people using that.

I follow quite a few communities across the lemmyverse so it's not too big of a deal, but I do know that it's a very large and popular instance (then again, my advice has always been to settle on a smaller instance anyways)
If an instance is just being slow I'll hop on to one of my other accounts, let alone down. My client makes that easy to do.
