Ah yes, so they have another large instance to ddos
Use smaller instances like lemmy.zip or lemm.ee. You know, the entire point of decentralization.
It's not just about users though, we need to separate communities as well. There are so many communities on lemmy.world currently.
Lemmy needs a refpost system where you can choose to post articles to different instances that link together.
You then can get all the benefits of centralization without necessarily being centralized.
How long will it take, do you think, for lemm.ee to become one of the bigger instances? I keep seeing people mention it, and that's why I'm here.
lemm.ee is larger than lemmy.ml by active users monthly, as such it's already the second largest instance. Don't let the "total users" number confuse you: lemmy.ml is ancient and is bound to have many inactive accounts.
I don't know why Hexbear's numbers are all blank (because it's newly federated?) but I would expect it to take second or third place.
Wow, didn't know that. Makes sense why I see so many lemm.ee users then
Ig it shouldn't be recommended as a smaller instance then
It still has one eighth the users of world. World is just absolutely huge compared to the rest.
Isn't lemm.ee running on commercial hardware designed to take much larger server loads?
What do you think the other ones are running on? i386s in someone's basement?
How about letting sh.itjust.works take the place, because their shit seems to always just works.
I actually migrated to lemmy.ca, eh, since lemmy.world is down half the fucking time. I have enemies to destroy, and I don't got time for that shit.
Lemmy.ca is the superior instance and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Question: when an instance is down do its posts just not show up on other instances it's federated with?
I'm guessing all the shitposts that don't load on 196@blahaj for me are from users on overloaded instances, because when I post there, the image is uploaded to my home instance and referenced in that post on the 'foreign' instance. Plenty of error placeholders there lately. Concerning your question: I think a community gets delayed into your feed if its server federates slowly or not at all until it is up again. I see sudden post batches appear in my feed sometimes and unseen posts from hours ago.
can't wait for them to blame another instance with no evidence whatsoever
