Lemmys WebSockets are being phased out currently and thus all bugs regarding them (wrong vote counters, posts being pushed in at the top in the wrong categories, etc.) are gonna go away as soon as the transition is complete.
Already resolved itself, the Nodes counter had the same dip so probably just servers not responding.
This is great! Thanks for your work.
Another problem is that you never actually receive a confirmation if your application was received and/or rejected, you are just sorta stuck in limbo after applying.
Just a “normal” http API as far as I know. There won’t be any live notifications/data on release but this can be added using polling at a later stage. It was mainly done because websockets just don’t scale well at all with thousands of users.
