Yeah, I'm curious at the scaling problems. 1000 active users isn't that many. Especially if this is touted as being the next reddit. There are many subreddits with orders of magnitude more active users.

Maybe I'm crazy however if this is the instance run by developers. Is $30-100/month really impossible to handle? I figured this would be their more exciting time.

The software is distinct from the opinions of the developer in my opinion... I mean I'm not a communist however I enjoyed playing Tetris...

Another silly question. Is there a reason lemmy.ca isn't listed on https://join-lemmy.org/instances?

Cool, I figured it would need more resources. But I suppose scaling is tomorrows problem. :D

Hopefully we can see some uptick in engagement on the sites as well. Creating an account is the first step, however we need to build the communities.

Hello everyone,

Still trying to get used to the new setup over on Lemmy, however trying to make some new communities work. Want to get /c/ontario and /c/waterloo running with some active discussions and people. Hopefully we can make a difference. :)

Edit: I'd also love to know the hardware that you're running this on!
