      The admins on many instances already went through an upgrade cycle about two weeks ago to account for the first influx of ex-redditors.

      Some of them may already be at their maximum ability/affordability.

      I think others in the thread are correct that moving to different instances will probably help reduce some of the overhead that’s slowing things down for many.

      The software industry has gotten so much better at designing and operating web apps that can scale quickly.

    More people need to learn what federation means instead of just saying “oh resdit2.0” and signing up for the flagship server.

    Well that’s the reason I didn’t create a lemmy account on popular instances 😆

    Apparantly, I don’t exist on some instances. And a comment I submitted earlier didn’t federate. Does anyone see this comment?

      That’s the beauty of the fediverse. You’ll be with us no matter the instance plus, the lack of karma means making a new account on another instance is a tiny inconvenience. :) i likes it here. like we’re all in a big pot of stew with no chef to fuck it up. looking at you SPEZ… dickhead

          It’s near the same but the important distinction is that your user doesnt accrue or lose points. Just comments and posts have a score, not your profile. This should disincentivize karma whoring.
