Fediverse observer lists uptime for each instance but I think it is measured over a very long period of time because many are near 100% which I don't think reflects the performance with increased usage this past week.

I actually installed Lemmy as a web app in Chrome (go to the three dots menu and select Install) and I find that experience less buggy than Jerboa currently.

Oh you built this community through your own time moderating, posting, upvoting and commenting? Cool we're gonna sell it to Vanguard for a few billy and pocket the profits! And, here's a list of approved content you're allowed to post now. Hard pass bro nobody cares about your IPO when we built your company.

I was shocked when I got my name without any numbers or symbols

I mean I guess I'm just as guilty but I've just always been more of a commenter. Maybe people just don't know the communities are there is the more likely problem? Should we put together a guide on popular instances and their communities - with the requirement being that any instance mentioned in the guide be mutually federated?

For me the sense of novelty I get on Lemmy is finding new instances and checking for communities I'm interested in. Sort of like finding a new subreddit but more like when you find r/earthporn and then discover their whole subreddit network. What I don't get though is why there's all these community stubs but hardly any content.

Yes same, for example asklemmy@lemmy.ml will not allow me to subscribe, it keeps saying pending. Same thing with about 5 other Lemmy.ml communities, but only with Lemmy.ml and not every community. And my instance hasn't been defederated.

Thank you just did this with Chrome on Android! Easier than having to open a new chrome tab every time for sure

[–] llama@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

This I would really like to see, and be able to group my subscriptions into feeds however I want instead of just the default subscribed feed. And it seems like it would be relatively simple to implement.

[–] llama@midwest.social 8 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Which I don't really think we want because it's all about context based on the instance. Technology@slrpnk.net would be all about solar tech whereas technology@beehaw.org would be more science and consumer electronics.

Hey well it takes a special kind of grocery store to still carry Old El Paso when you could just pick up the Pace!
