Excellent! Some good news at least.

Yes, restarting Lemmy somehow resets the memory use of the database as well.
Nothing particular, but there was a strange bug in previous versions that in combination with Lemmy caused a small memory leak.
Try switching to Postresql 16.2 or later.
Could also be algae farming, but it looks more like salterns.
Hmm, there is a memory leak issue with PostgreSQL versions lower than 16.2, so instances would run out of RAM and start swapping after a while. But it would surprise me if lemmy.ml specifically was suffering from that as the devs surely know about this issue.
They have no ability to glide like a plane in the event of an engine failure.

Yes, I also noticed that. It used to work a while ago.
If you like our communities so much, you could also create an account on slrpnk.net 😊
But yeah, two smaller instances with not much overlap in interests by their users tend to not federate well and you need to go the extra mile to search out the communities and subscribe to them.
It has improved a bit since then (2019), but mainly because of the detoriating funding situation forcing Element to push the Matrix foundation to try and survive on their own.
Yes, but there are IMHO better options like XMPP or IRC that are truely community driven and have stood the test of time.
For all practical purposes Matrix is run by a private for profit and venture-capital funded company called Element / New Vector.
That is just an image (probably during construction) and the damage seems to be somewhere far out in the ocean anyway.
Makes sense that founders can delete it, but you can ask the instance admin to restore it and make you moderator in that community.
Account migration similar to Mastodon and better onboarding of users similar to Pixelfed.
It’s enshittified right in the design of the protocol. The entire idea of ATproto is to decentralize the annoying (& legally tricky) stuff like identity management and moderation, while keeping the profitable stuff (advertisement embedded in algorithmic feeds) more or less centralized.
And even though they are quite open about that in their technical documentation, somehow people fail to see it for what it is and think this would be somehow to their own benefit.
First of all this is mainly a feature to protect existing instances against spam from other badly managed instances.
But yes, admin approval scales surprisingly well if you have several admins per instance and many smallish instances, and it could be further improved by giving existing users secret invite links than don’t require admin approval (AFAIK also already supported by Pixelfed).
As much as I think these animals should not be held in captivity, seeing Beluga whales in Valencia years ago left a deep impression on me.
They have a large underwater window where you can try to interact with them if it isn’t too crowded. Maybe I was more impressionable back then, but these animals are incredibly smart, almost an alien experience.
