Rule 1:

Sexy pirate John Oliver artwork ONLY

Now I have been there for around 4-5 months and Reddit just killing piracy over there and making it a rule uploading this bullshit sucks.

It is not really a useful sub anymore, get off.

Yes I will be active on her though. It is the only useful thing now.

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.

5th June there was about 58k total users lemmy/kbin combined I think, now there is about 320k if not more

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!
