Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.

I'm not who you're replying to, but I have accounts on a handful of instances for this very reason. Sometimes things go down or get laggy, and I just hop to a different instance.

It's a strength of the fediverse.
