This project is used to dealing with like 10 users online at once, and now there's literally tens of thousands. Cut them some slack
Yeah, bye. We wont miss you.
You are more than welcome to hop on and improve the code base yourself or host your own instance.
Downvoted but idk another social media app that has CONSTANT "Timeouts" on gigabit ethernet except this one.
Growing pains. There's been like 1000% growth or something ridiculous in the past week. The nature of the fediverse will make it more resilient in the long term and the backend software is rapidly being updated.
You could also try a different instance, could be too much load on dbzer0's server.
EDIT: I don't think open hostility towards people having issues with Lemmy is productive. We should be helping people with the issues they're having if we want to grow. There is a learning curve to this.
I agree. Lemmy is not as mature as Mastodon, and federation adds a whole extra layer of complexity. Growing pains are too be expected.
It's probably a good thing that the early adopters tend to be more technically savvy/tolerant.
Meanwhile, yarr!
5th June there was about 58k total users lemmy/kbin combined I think, now there is about 320k if not more
