I think this is the first time I have ever seen a post with over 1000 upvotes on lemmy. ( lemmy.ml )

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)....
I stole this from u/fuckass on Hexbear

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....
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
I think there’s a bug somewhere :)...
Crossposts are a great way to follow posts from one community to the next, and discover more user contributions. I would love to see that on Lemmy.
Would Lemmy be a good fit for adding individual “blogging” as a feature? What I mean is the ability for a user to create posts tied to their account instead of a specific community. The default Lemmy Frontend/webapp has all the basic features that would normally make up a blog: ability to make posts, markdown editor, hell...
Apologies for all the translators that weren’t able to sign up before (it was email issues), this should be fixed now.
I think we need to add a couple more barriers to prevent spam. What about limiting posting to X amount of posts, or for new users or something?
