Anyone having issues with Lemmy self hosting? (lemmy.world)

My main account is dark_arc@social.packetloss.gg. However, as of roughly ~~24-hours ago~~ (it seems this has been going on since March 10th and gotten worse since) it seems like the server has stopped properly retrieving content from lemmy.world.

It's been running smoothly for well over 9 months, and (I think) working fine for content coming in from other instances. So I'm curious if anyone else experienced anything strange with lemmy.world federation recently?

Setup Description

The server flow in my case is as follows:

[Public Internet] <-> [Digital Ocean Droplet] <-> [ZeroTier] <-> [Physical Machine in my Basement (HW Info)]

The Digital Ocean droplet is a virtual host machine that forwards requests via nginx to the physical machine where a second nginx server (running the standard lemmy nginx config) then forwards the request to the lemmy server software itself.

Current Status

Lemmy Internal Error

I've found this is my lemmy logs:

2024-03-24T00:42:10.062274Z  WARN lemmy_utils: error in spawn: Unknown: Request limit was reached during fetch
   0: lemmy_apub::objects::community::from_json

             at src/root_span_builder.rs:16

I'm thinking this could be the cause ... though I'm not sure how to raise the limit (it seems to be hard coded). I opened an issue with the Lemmy devs but I've since closed it while gathering more information/making sure this is truly an issue with the Lemmy server software.

Nginx 408 and 499s

I'm seeing the digital ocean nginx server reporting 499 on various "/inbox" route requests and I'm seeing the nginx running on the physical machine that talks directly to lemmy reporting 408 on various "/inbox" route requests.

There are some examples in this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/8728858

Using that site and doing my instance to Lemmyworld , your site is listed under the working ones. I know spam has been on the rise again on big instances, so that could be playing a part in this also.
