I have a profile on mastodon.nu and it's experiencing outages now and then as well.
My guess is that the whole Fediverse is having an influx of new users, so it will be a bit crowded in the hallways for a while? (I'm new to these parts of the Fediverse. At first, I considered moving to another mastodon instance, but now I think I should just keep my head cool for a bit.)
The instance admin has said there was "an issue communicating and authenticating with the database service", which caused it to go offline. I believe he is also checking joining requests now to try and weed out bots etc. Thanks again for your reply earlier, it confirmed i wasn't 'just me'.
