I’m here from Reddit… Gimme hugs!
Another reddit refugee here and this is my first ever comment on Lemmy.ml (or any of the Lemmy instances, for that matter). Welcome!
And another one here. Let reddit burn to the ground with their own VC greed.
We’ll explore this weird new world t together!
Same here, feels interesting but good!
We’ll see… 🤗
Created my own instance to help out. Created a few communities, hopefully they’ll become searchable from the big instances soon.
Thank you for your service.
In the future, there’s nothing that says you or anyone else can’t create accounts on a few of the large instances and subscribe to communities on your own instance to make this link happen!
Put some links to your communities, I’ll sub to start the link
I’ve made three so far -
https://1337lemmy.com/c/thesopranos
https://1337lemmy.com/c/chicubs
https://1337lemmy.com/c/chibears
The link has finally been made, so no need to sub unless you’d like to. Thanks for offering!
And after the 1st of July too, probably
⚰️💐
It’ll be good practice for when a bunch of third party apps die and some post about “how to go about delete your stuff and registering on this list of alternatives in just a few easy steps” comes up.
And by practice, I mean that the horse corpse is going to be fucking pulverized.
I’ve been part of Ruqqus & Imzy, I hope that this time it will be a success! (hopium overdose)
I miss Imzy, that was such a wholesome site :)
I miss imzy tooo =(
It would make a great stress test though when suddenly millions join Lemmy :)
Reddit chose a very bad time to mess up, right when we’re in the middle of coding some of our biggest performance improvements. They timed this perfectly to make things as stressful as possible for nutomic and I lol.
Your efforts are appreciated!
❤
Depending on how bad the perf is, it may be worth it throwing the instance on a real big machine to take the load to buy time for the optimization work without turning many users away. Contributions should increase with the flood of users. If a big machine could mask the problems of course. Maybe they’re too bad to mask. You probably know.
Great work and good luck!!!
I’ve been busy too recently and I just noticed yesterday the influx of new users… So I’ve updated and upgraded the server a bit. Hopefully I can keep my instance running smoothly and contribute a little bit that way!
No one will come; you can’t use RIF here, either.
(ha ha)
Someone at RIF must be thinking about adding support for Lemmy.
E: Or jump to Jerboa. Looks a bit early in development but it’s surprisingly functional.
