Tbh, I kinda like that we have these growing pains.
Helps folks leave out older expectations of monolithic profit-oriented social platforms. And actually put some money down to help host the specific niche community they really want to exist.
I'll probably eat these words later but, as of this moment, I stand by it.
Yeah, this is the fediverse's way of telling us to break our old habit of piling on a single site and to spread out.
Except...it's being DDOS'd, so no, it isn't.
If anything this is basically establishing to everyone out there that if you want to kill an instance or encourage people to move to a different one (with different admins who might have different..."styles"), just DDOS it and promote your alternative instance as a refuge.
I'm sticking with .world because the admins there are chill. Don't feel like rolling the dice on a new instance where some power mods probably set up shop.
You do you, but I wouldn't say that lemm.ee, sh.itjust.works, sopuli.xyz or reddthat.col are power mods
Particularly sh.itjust.works. They're letting the community vote on instance rules and the Admin is really chill
If you can't tell from the name it's not going to work well.
Blahaj is queer focused, but there is no way you can get that from the name
It's a tumblr meme and IKEA reacted to the association by using the shark as a prop in their pro-gay marriage ads in Switzerland. F1nnster has like twenty in a pile in the background as people keep buying them for him.
I didn't know blahaj was LGBTQ-related. That's so fucking cool!

A gaming instance would take a lot of load.
Isn't https://lemmy.zip/ gaming focused?
