Are there others?

Also, it seems like a lot, does anyone know why they all went down at the same time?

Nope, believe it or not it is dirt cheap to run one of these.

It really depends. It would not surprise me if lemmy.world needs to buy a terabyte of storage every month just to have enough space for all image uploads. That's possible when you can just use a single hard drive and put it in a server at home, but if you use hosting and/or want redundancy that can add up quickly.
