Are you using the
Import/Export Settings
buttons in the settings page?If you can reproducibly crash an instance then you should definitely file this as an urgent security issue in the lemmy repo so it can be fixed: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues
Is it possible the heavy traffic is causing Lemmy to temporarily block this person and not actually crashing the instance?
