welcome to all the new users though <3

Yeah, I'm normally on lemmy.world but I had to sign-up to a second smaller instance. You can still view ALL and see the rest, but it's soooo much quicker.

I guess that's the point of a federated system.

Same. Unfortunately posts from the new account don’t always show up when I log into the old account and look for them.

I’m sure syncing the data back to lemmy.world is just getting killed too.

In a few months there might be a way to either link various accounts in different instances or be able to shift data from one and another.

We just gotta wait I guess. We are literally in the first month of growth. It has been an insane development.

This is the way.

Plus, nobody is going to target some tiny instance with defederation, so you won't miss out on content.

Yeah I opened an account on the Reddthat.com instance so I could browse ALL while Lemmyworld is on the fritz.

That's what happens when everyone piles on one instance instead of spreading out

Yeah. This is partly why I quickly left lemmy.ml and looked for a smaller instance that plays well with my ISP. The other reason, you can probably guess.

Me watching everyone complain about large instances lag spiking from pawb.social :
