Everyone liked that.

As a new user, thanks for being accepting of us migrants!

Please know that your work is genuinely appreciated in fascilitating the migration from Reddit to Lemmy. Your efforts will hopefully ensure a bright future for communities on this platform. Kudos @nutomic@lemmy.ml !

Thank you so much for all the hard work, I'm really loving it here.

The server has become more responsive definitely. I thought my internet routing was so shitty that it took so long to load the site. Nice!

@nutomic @liaizon 502 Bad Gateway ?

Just started supporting this instance on liberapay, if other follow you'll hopefully be able to upgrade the potato soon !

Have we explored the possibility of "porting" the larger communities to other instances? It seems that many of us simply wish to subscribe to the largest (insert type of community here) and can do so from various home instances. Might lower demand on this specific instance at the very least.

This new machine is speedy! Getting pretty much instant loading times. Thank you to the donators, I will be joining you soon!

Is it possible to horizontally scale these instances instead of just upping the machine hardware? What are the main performance bottlenecks typically?

Is that why I kept getting this error?

Thank you for your hard work! Although I kinda foresee for the future if Lemmy really would become the new "reddit" with such servers and millions of users, wouldn't that also rise the server costs and ultimately make the hosts dependent on asking money for it, maybe by a paywall or by ads? I think to make this community really be "free" without any host responsible for spending a huge amount of money for servers, the best solution would be to make the actual "servers" be a p2p cluster. Unfortunately I'm not quite sure how to realize that without losing a huge fraction of the model if a lot of nodes (i.e., the actual users) are offline. Sorry, I'm just brainstorming.

Upgrade unlocked!

I really do appreciate everything you're doing for us all. Thank you.

Are there still issues with cross-instance content? Previously, if I signed in to lemmy.ca and subscribed to a channel on .ml, I didn't see all content. Likewise, if I left a comment from my .ca account, it wouldn't necessarily show up for users on .ml.

If this is still a problem, it's a HUGE roadblock in being able to just tell people to join other instances, if we don't want to fracture an existing community.

Edit: That may have simply been a result of the excess load?

Something isn't working with ipv6, on my phone network I get nginx 502 but on wifi it works

I've donated on https://opencollective.com/lemmy to support this :)

Is there a way to migrate my account to a new server?

Congrats on the smooth migration!

How to migrate an account to another instance without losing anything including relationships ?

I haven't dug into the bowels of lemmy, but is there anything to be gained by scaling horizontally?

Thanks for your hard work, I really can tell the difference. Now lemmy.ml is much more responsive than before

Thank you! I can actually participate now!! I have several screen shots saved of my profile showing me logged in under random user names over the last few days. ~.~ Shit was weird. I couldn't post, couldn't stay logged in, or I'd see a strange profile name if it actually let me click into a thread. Everything seems to be solid today.

I just want to say, you all are doing a great job. Maybe I don’t fully understand it yet, but I have created some communities on the lemmy.ml instance and I don’t really want to move away. Is there anything I can or should do? I think that I’m currently locked in here.

I can feel the difference already. Really enjoying it here and while I wouldn’t let some technical difficulties stop me, I think it will help grow the community. Thank you!

Thank you!!

Noticeably faster! Thank you.

Thanks for your work on this site. It feels very promising and a great place to migrate to. Reddit is about to hit their digg/myspace moment.

I'm still having trouble that any comments I make on other instances through lemmy.ml are not seen on those instances, only when viewed through lemmy.ml

Congrats! I was hoping that's what was going on!!❤️

This server now: I am speed
