The GitHub repo that provides a comparison table of different lemmy instances now includes the version of lemmy that’s installed...
I’ve been so used to judging a post just by its popularity on reddit, but it’s actually so much more useful to have an idea of the downvote ratio. I’m glad we have that here....
If you’re a Lemmy dev and reading this, the problem is in pict-rs. I have sent an email to asonix with the needed changes, please tell them to check their inbox (since I can’t register on their git server, I can’t submit a formal PR)....
Hi, I used to be the moderator of the (now dead) LibreOffice community. After a while, I kinda forgot about Lemmy and went back to lurking Reddit, using Teddit and RedReader. In light of the API protests, I decided to come back here to see how Lemmy was doing, and I’m surprised by the amount of users it’s getting!...

So that if you paste a link to one of those big social media platforms, it offers to replace it with a working alternative front-end.
This site is currently struggling to handle the amount of new users. I have already upgraded the server, but it will go down regardless if half of Reddit tries to join....

Hey there, I wanted to join some communities in the programming.dev instance, but it doesn’t seem to be connected to any other instance (I can’t see it from my account’s instance and its community list also only has its own communities). The signup form also freezes if I try to make an account on the instance directly. Am...
I wrote a guide to help users with their migration to Lemmy...
Whereas I might’ve been less generous with upvotes on Reddit, I think it’s important in these early formative stages to let others know that I appreciate their contributions. I hope it encourages growth and activity!
How do you feel about the massive influx of users?
Both were down for me before, they seem to be up right now but just made this account on Lemmy.blahaj.zone (Henry is the name of my actual blahaj lol). It’s probably because of the traffic influx from reddit refugees from the absolutely disastrous spez ama (where he doubles down on everything and doesn’t apologize at all)....
If the reddit exodus happens and Lemmy gets even 2% of reddit’s daily active users, how will Lemmy sustain the increased traffic? I know donations are an option, but I don’t think long term donations will be sustainable. Most users will never donate....
I stole this from u/fuckass on Hexbear

It’s easy to discover communities on my instance via the dedicated page in the hamburger menu. But let’s say I want to follow a community on another instance, such as !lemmy . I might have found its name mentioned in a post or comment. When I click on the provided link, I’m thrown on that instances web page, from which I...
With forewarning about a huge influx of users, you know Lemmy.ml will go down. Even if people go to join-lemmy.org/instances and disperse among the great instances there, the servers will go down....
Rule #2 is possibly our most important one:...
Every time I look at reddit or twitter they’re designed to be filled with the most vile or annoying posts imaginable to keep you scrolling and this place just… doesn’t have that. It’s relieving to not be inherently angry just scrolling through new posts
Just joined, and well, I’m thinking ill stay. Ive been looking for a good reddit alternative for a while now. devs, you’ve done quite some good work here.
