It's not the kids, not the lurkers, not the mods... y'all just nice people. Lemmy's got a good vibe going... or at least enough windows that we can close if the vibe gets shit.

The content is nice. The performance, not so much.

Yeah it’s got some growing pains. Anything worth it’s salt will have growing pains.

Even Reddit did back in the day. Ya know back when Aaron Schwartz was running the show.

[-] Hypersapien@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh, yeah. It's inconvenient, but hopefully it will get better.

[-] ryno364@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It will. The only way to fix problems is to release your application so you can see the problems. That’s how software works.

I had a reddit account from early on and lemmy feels similar. Its gonna be great watching it evolve

I get better performance from the colorful pills at the gas station

Yeah, I'm hoping the overall speed of the site improves rapidly. I can't seem to upvote comments and my first comment appeared to get stuck posting until I refreshed the page and it did in fact post.

Try lemm.ee instance and Liftoff (wefwef.app) apps. Awesome speed.

Can we say we "made it" when megacorps start making their own instances and communities?

[-] Hypersapien@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think we'll have "made it" when You Tubers devote videos to reading Lemmy posts.

[-] Hypersapien@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think they'll use the actual Lemmy software. They'll probably make their own thing using the ActivityPub protocol.

And we'll start seeing "to view the whole post, register at Jojo Corp and get 25% of your first purchase!"

Based 😁❤️

[-] Hypersapien@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, crap. I just thought of something. What if they try bribing instance owners to stay federated with them?
