Huge heartfelt thank you to everyone involved - given the huge growth you're doing awesome!
It would be great to see plans on how to grow in a controlled and safe way and plans for improving the performance. Really hope you have the funds needed and continue to have the income to support everything needed.
Thank you again, it's wonderful to get an update!
Thanks for the update!
So seems that Reddit refugees influx indeed hit this instance.
Your work is much appreciated!
Thank you for all your hard work!
I really appreciate the updates. As someone in the tech field, it's been fascinating getting the inside scoop on how it's all coming together.
Edit: I made another account off of your instance to ease up on the pressure, but so many communities and users I care about are on your instance, so I'm using it too!
Thanks for the update, glad you guys are being transparent about the issues everyone seems to be facing. Looking forward to the coming improvements. π
Curious about the server info. Is there more info available somewhere else?
Is lemmy.world running on a single server? What's the CPU and memory capacity? You mentioned a percentage of CPU usage and an amount for ram, so that made me curious about what's available for each.
Does restarting take down all services or is the application clustered or not monolithic somehow?
I think most of the users can understand the current situation. Take care guys and girls!
Great work! We believe in you guys.
Again, thanks for all your hard work, and your transparency about the whole ordeal. Hopefully, the userbase in general is being patient and understanding given the situation.
Can anyone give me a link to donate to help out? Ever since discovering lemmy I hardly use reddit and would like to contribute to this community more!
Yep! Donating to both their Open Collective page for Mastodon.World (didn't grab that link by accident), as well as their Patreon page for Mastodon.World works!
They have a note up on Patreon that donations there also contribute to World.Lemmy, as well as another Lemmy instance!
Here's the link to their Patreon; https://patreon.com/mastodonworld
Thanks for the update, you're leading the way for Lemmy.
I was prepared for servers crashing and lagging, but you're keeping things moving thus far, despite receiving 85k new users in a month. Heroic stuff.
Thanks for all of your effort. Even though we are on different instances, itβs important for the Fediverse community that you succeed. You are doing valuable work, and I appreciate it.
Not just that, but the code contributed to Lemmy by this debugging will make Lemmy run faster for everyone on every instance, which is makes the ecosystem that much better.
Thanks again for the hard work that you and the others are putting in Ruud. It can't be easy trying to patch the boat while the boat keeps growing ridiculously fast at the same time. You are very much appreciated!
Thanks for the update and keep up the great work! :)
I want this to succeed so badly. I truly feel like itβs going to be sink or swim and will reflect how all enshitification efforts will play out.
Band together now and people see thereβs a chance. Fail and we are doomed to corporate greed in every facet of our lives.
i just wanted to thank you for doing your best to fix lemmy.world as soon as possible.
but please, don't feel forced to overwork yourselves. i understand you want to do it soon so more people can move from Reddit, but i wouldn't like that Lemmy software and community developers overwork and feel miserable, as those things are some of the very motives you escaped from Reddit in first place.
in my opinion, it would be nice that we users understand this situation and, if we want lemmy so bad, we actively help with it.
this applies to all lemmy instances and communities, ofc. have a nice day you all! ^^
Plus, slow steady growth means eventual success. Burnout is very real if you never take a break.
Thanks u/ruud!
How are you managing all of this in addition to having a life outside of Lemmy? This kind of went from 0-60 in a blink.
Thank you for your hard work and transparency
In which country is this server located?
Anything to be said for using me cache or redis?
Thanks a lot for addressing these issues. It's really nice to see how this platform keeps growing and growing.
Hi, am I correct that typing on iPad currently doesnβt work? As in the keypad wonβt show up. I have to type in google or notepad and paste (the paste popup still works) to lemmy.world lol! Anyone else?
As always, thanks for the hard work everybody puts into this!
Had that happen earlier this week. Update your Lemmy client, then update your iPad, then restart your iPad. That fixed it for me with WefWef.
You are the boss! Turning the iPad off and on again worked :)
Appreciate all the work. Iβve only been on Lemmy a few days but the openness is refreshing and I think this place has been pretty cool.
This is the level of transparency that most companies should strive for. Ironic that in terms of fixing things, volunteer and passion projects seem to be more on top of issues compared to big companies with hundreds of employees.
