There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

i should have added it here a while ago!

Hello everyone, new to Lemmy!

I had randomly picked up Lemmy.world but found Lemmy.ca along the way.

Was hoping to sign up here but it seems to be having issues. Hopefully that gets resolved over the next few days and I can land over here with y'all.

If not, I guess it doesn't really matter. I can just sub around here too.

Fediverse is cool :)

what kind of issues are you having?

[–] CrimsonFlash@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I've noticed the site failing to load pages, or just generally slow.

Edit: For example, this reply took a fairly long time to submit.

yeah i've noticed some hiccups too. will continue to monitor it.

edit: i just bumped up the # of allowed db connections and the # of connection pools for lemmy, so hopefully that should help as well.
