Hi all. I've chosen Connect For Lemmy as my go-to android lemmy app for now but it has a strange quirk. (Unless this is true?) While trying to search or even access communities, I'm getting an error page telling me that feddit is under maintenance. There's even a banner informing me this across the bottom of the app.

Is this an app bug or something server side?

I was getting this in the web interface about an hour ago. Given the API issues at Reddit and Elon doing his best to drive people from Twitter, I suspect a lot of the Fediverse is getting hammered this weekend. I just gave it some time and it resolved itself.

edit: for example, see this. I imagine lemmy.world took the brunt of the hit but other larger instances will have been under strain.
