lemmy.world has simply gotten too crowded
switching to a smaller instance really solves a lot of these issues
If Lemmy had a feature to move my account to a different instance similar to what Mastodon has, that would’ve solved it for me, unfortunately I already have everything set up the way I like it here so starting another account and resubscribing just feels very… eh…
. Saving this for later. Thanks
Easier to just mock the volunteers running the server. That’s more reasonable 🙄
I wasn’t mocking the maintainers, why would you assume that? I merely made a joke.
Funny thing, when you mock someone with dumb jokes, people “assume” you’re mocking them. Weird, I know, but it’s true.
Yep, keeping my Lemmy.world account but moved to a smaller instance today solved all the issues I was having. Ruud is doing an amazing job but it’s grown insanely fast.
Yeah I don’t blame them a bit, there’s no way to prepare for such an increase of users.
Wasn’t just me that had that thought then 😂
Hopefully the devs for lemmy can figure out horizontal scaling soon and we’ll see the other side of these teething problems
This will be annoying for a little while, but it’s also exciting because it means people are here and using Lemmy.
Mastodon also suffered for a while, but I rarely experience serious trouble anymore.
This kind of pressure is necessary to motivate people to improve the system. Nobody wants to work hard on fixing something nobody’s using.
