Well well 🤨
  • Actually an instance dedicated to self hosted stuff would be great. We could have communities specifically for things like home lab, media hosting (Plex, Jellyfin, Emby), unRAID, TrueNAS, shit posting, hardware discussions, general conversations, etc.

    This would reduce the strain on lemmy.world and give us all a dedicated home for more niche topics without posts getting buried

  • How do I merge all the instances on the web?
  • You can just go to your instance's page (like lemmy.world) and select "All" on top of the post list instead of "Local" or "Subscribed". That allows you to see everything like how you do in Liftoff

  • did we really just survive this?
  • I agree. But one disadvantage of really tiny instances is the lack of confidence I have that the admins stay on top of keeping those instances up to date with the latest version of Lemmy. The older the version, the more the likelihood of bugs, performance issues, and potential security vulnerabilities.

    Hopefully the Lemmy devs get motivated by this new influx of users that they start to incorporate features that extend the vision of decentralization where user accounts could be migrated to another instance without losing anything. That would mean whenever an instance gets hit with too much load, just switch it out with one that has less load on it and you are good to go ahead with your day.

  • Lemmy.world grew by about 40% on the first day of reddit migration
  • I am one of those people who migrated as I grew up with an internet that was full of small communities and interesting content uncontrolled by greedy corporations. When I found Reddit back in 2012, I thought it was amazing and going to be a bastion of information for a modern internet. Well, now we know that wasn't the case thanks to chasing the almighty dollar. Hopefully this is the point in time where we can steer this ship around and bring the control back to the users.

  • did we really just survive this?
  • I switched to lemm.ee just to be able to load anything haha. Liking the instance so far. Smaller user base so less load and the admin seems competent enough to keep it going strong based on their interaction with the community
