I wish we as a species would just drop this trend of having to eventually ruin a good thing just about every goddam time.

I just checked reddark over 8400 subreddits are down, pretty much all of the big ones are closed down, that's crazy! I only had one reddit brain fart today and caught myself before, so I have no idea how things are there, but I do miss all the nature, castles and sculptures pictures from the stuff I followed.

manifesting christian decides to rewrite apollo for lemmy 🙏

half kidding of course, i think he said he wasn’t interested in reddit alternatives anyways, but i do miss it

He actually addressed it in the Verge article linked in this thread. He's afraid of Lemmy or Kbin dying off and having to deal with the emotional toll of the app dying all over again. As a developer, I totally get that concern. He has put so much of his time into Apollo just to see it die, I wouldn't want to risk that again.

Just have to say: Has anyone notice that Beehaw is just way faster then Reddit? Sorry new here, just my first impression. By the way. Thanks everyone for this site.

Lemmy.ml is down. My main account is there, which is the one I use to moderate everything. I will try to migrate my account from one instance to another because lemmy.ml is not stable

That's an unfortunate timing. They should have locked registrations before accepting too much traffic

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, or upgrade before like lemmy.world did. I don't know on which instance I will go now, not here because we can't create communities (which is really fine, this instance don't have duplicate that way and the ambiance here is fun)
