How about donating to smaller instances so we aren't one government raid away from collapsing.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Both. Let's do both.

Like it or not, right now lemmy.world is the landing page for Lemmy and much of the fediverse as a whole.

From there, they can start branching out to other instances.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Exactly. It's an introduction and containment Instance. Basically our reddit. Then the rest of the Fediverse can interact with it or keep it at arms distance however much they wish.

Good question. I think it has multiple reasons.

  1. It's not that all my posts are meta, but the meta one's are the most successful.
  2. I want to contribute content to lemmy, so that it will prevail and attract new users. I also make memes on things that are on my mind, which is lemmy, when I'm on lemmy.
  3. Well I could post memes about very niche topics, that I'm interested in, but I think that they wouldn't be interesting/funny for most of the users here. While content about lemmy is most likely interesting/funny for the users here.
  4. I think shitposting is rather often meta.
  5. In the last days not many things happened, that would be memeable.
  6. So that can see that it's OC.

But I take your comment as a challenge to shitpost more on other topics.

What are you talking about?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i noticed a large portion of op's post are all meta/lemmy related and i was curious as to why

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Op is probably just heavily invested in the meme economy

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s low hanging fruit to make fun of or reference lemmy.world and its issues over the last few weeks.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean… if it annoys you, block the user…?

People are gonna post memes here. I don’t see why that’s a problem. You can opt out of seeing them if you want.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

thanks for that reminder.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Here you go, 1 internet coin. Use it wisely.

I moved back to .ml because it was so bad. Comments and posts would give errors on loading and posting. Maybe everyone jumping on a single server wasn't the best idea.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Definitely improved. I remember having to strangle the upvote button and constantly refresh search results to get them to actually load. For the past 5+ days though its been Reddit-smooth; little sluggish today but not by much.

There is a discord server for the subs that are run by the coalition. It should be sticked on this sub

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Its still shitting the bed. I am logged in but says I am not logged in. Tried on thunder and jerboa. Now I have moved to aussie.zone instance and its pretty snappy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The log in issue started with the hack. I was able to fix it by clearing cookies and files from the jebora app. This is my 2nd comment after I finally solved it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you!!! This worked. I Uninstaller and reinstalled the jerboa app and it still wouldn't work. Had this issue ok connect too. Clearing data and cache worked!

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How about no? No instance in the fediverse should grow as unsustainably as lemmy.world or lemmy.ml. People should naturally diversify into the smaller instances because that is what a federated Lemmyverse is supposed to be about.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i moved to lemm.ee and i have 0 issues it's awesome

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That is still the 7th largest instance. I'm glad it still works out for you, but I'm still not a fan of how the entire fediverse can be summarised in the top few instances.
