I'm honestly curious whether the site will manage to stay running over the next few weeks / months.

Reddit has a similar number of MAU and 1/10 the number of staff Twitter had. And I don't think their tech stack is all that spectacular, probably worse than Twitter's. Yet, their site runs just fine.
Reddit does go down quite frequently.
I doubt Twitter takes 3500 infra engineers to keep online.
