Compared to old.reddit + RES there's still some space for improvement in terms of UX for lemmy but overall, not too bad :P
Das würde leider (zum Glück?) nicht funktionieren, da untenerkenner ein Ausfall als solchen erkennt, wenn es mehr Meldungen gibt als sonst im Durchschnitt. Sprich wenn du ständig einen Ausfall meldest, dann wird einfach der Durchschnitt an Meldungen angehoben, das wird jedoch dann nicht mehr als Ausfall gemeldet.
You might wanna consider temporarily closing sign-up requests on lemmy.ml similarly to how mastodon.social did it during its large influx. Making a sign-up request and just receiving an infinite loading icon is a very frustrating experience.
Similarly, you want to make it as easy as possible to financially contribute to lemmy, even if it means using proprietary platforms like Patreon.
Overall, the current Reddit API change is probably one of the largest opportunities for lemmy right now, so smoothing over the user experience as fast as possible in the coming days will be of atmost importance if we want lemmy to become a viable Reddit alternative...
I would agree, IF Signal also wouldn't allow backups on Android and wouldn't store images on desktop completely unencrypted... At this point it's just hypocrisy
IMO it's a user's choice whether or not to backup their data. Wire handled this quite well where you could backup your chat history etc but you were required to set an encryption password for the backup.
For reference, Signal is my main chat platform and my main point of contact. Having 2GB of chat histories that could just be lost at any moment is quite unnerving and a major reason for me to look at other platforms...
