oh wow. So, posting this TOO lemmy.world FROM lemm.ee also took forever, but finally posted. Posting too lemmy.world FROM lemmy.world never posted, just a spinning reply button for 30 min until I closed the tab.
not to pile on, but woof. really love lemmy and happy to work hard to build a community here. Lemmy.world was a great general instance when I hopped on so started there and was going great until 0.18
0.17 had bugs, sure, but it ran, it loaded.
but goodness... I made a lemm.ee account this morning and tested it replying to a lemmy post on both. lemm.ee reply posted immediately. My lemmy.world reply to that? still spinning
To get my community to load. I clicked it, got no page, one refresh got the page and icon, 2nd refresh finally got the banner too.
Is it all down to too many users? I'd move my community to help, but I don't think that's possible yet.
*edit, I actually couldn't reply to this thread from lemmy.world, so now copypasta'd it to post from lemm.ee
Testing out replies from a lemm.ee account.
posting from a lemm.ee account to make me a mod so I can clean up some federation issues over here. lol
