Megathread for Reddit Blackouts and News - Week 1
  • Yeah this is the main reason I won't be giving up reddit 100% once the 3rd party apps go down. I definitely won't be doom scrolling on my phone like I used to, but I 100% will still use reddit on my desktop as a research tool. There's just nothing else like it for the amount of quality niche information atm.

  • Is anybody else experiencing lag?
  • Definitely an influx of users from reddit today. Honestly I'm impressed it's holding up as well as it is atm. It's a bit slower than usual, taking 3-5 seconds to load posts, but everything is still working 👍

  • current lemmy status
  • I saw how long the list is and got kinda concerned I might miss out on content since I'm on beehaw, but now it just sounds like I'm getting sheltered from all the internet wackjobs lol

  • current lemmy status
  • One instance might have separate rules than another, so you can use multiple to get around that. Also if one instance gets shutdown for whatever reason you'll need another instance to browse through.

    Generally though, no. One instance is fine and helps keep the system from getting overloaded with users.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I've been slowly switching away from google products the past year or so. Switched from chrome to firefox, and google search to duckduckgo, but maps is one I couldn't give up. It's just better than all other competitors IMO.

  • Are other certain communities unavailable through beehaw?

    I was trying to access !trees@sh.itjust.works through beehaw as it seems to be the largest related community currently, and I can't seem to access it, I just get a 404. I am able to access other communities on that instance, but not this one. Is it considered NSFW and thus blocked?

    edit: working now. Tried it earlier and then tried again a few hours later and it was still not working. Looks like the solution is searching via beehaw itself with the full community address. going there via URL doesn't work to make beehaw recognize it.

    Phantom Liberty is coming soon! What are you hoping to see in it?

    I'm personally hoping to see some new content in these Pacifica skyscrapers! According to N54 news, the big building in construction was bought out by Kang Tao, so maybe we'll get some new megacorp related gigs!

    Any Baseball fans?? Brewers have had an interesting season so far, still holding onto that #1 spot in the division!

    The Pirates are close, and have been for a while, but we're still in the lead for post season!

    Any thoughts on the team so far?
