Tomorrow, reddit will be shutting off 3rd party app access. If the twitter migration is anything to go by, that means that the wave of new users coming in the next few weeks will be much bigger than the wave we saw earlier this month.

Our lead techy admin @supakaity@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also recovering from broken bones and surgery, so she will be slower to respond to issues :)

All of that being said, we're as prepared as we can be. We're currently running our instance on hardware with excess capacity to spare, but who knows if it will be enough.

So, good luck to all of us, and see you on the other side :)

RedditIsFun is down, so I am out. Used it for the 10 years I was there, and don't like the "New Reddit" they've been creating for monetization-sake.

10 years here as well. Was sad opening it up and seeing nothing, even though I knew it was coming.

Yeah. It's bittersweet for sure. I used to thoroughly enjoy reddit 5 or so years ago... and at the risk sounding like a crotchety old man, "it's not as good as it once was!" Things change, and I'm eager to see if lemmy is as good as it is in theory. Federated site sounds so futuristicly positive!

Was worse because they closed it down at like 5pm on the 30th where Reddit is based. I was hoping it would last till midnight :/
