Ok so if a toot (post) linked to your content hosted on your website goes viral in the Fediverse, the chance exists your website is overloadded as it's being 'DDOS'ed' by the many instances while they're fetching metadata at the same time.
This isn't really a Mastodon or Fediverse problem right? The same issue can occur with Nostr when your note goes viral and many clients are requesting the metadata from your site (for generating previews for example).
