Lemmy would be soaring too if it weren't for terrible database code allowing for easy ddos.
Try using a smaller instance. I recently switched from lemmy.world to lemmy.zip and it's lightning fast. While you still get all the content from lemmy.world :)
I find it interesting how many people are looking for the overall lemmy experience. The first thing I did was find the community niche that interested me and the relevant instance, then when I've exhausted that instance I switch to the Everything tab and all find the generic content.
Edit: I accidentally wrote fine the community niece...
How did you like the community niece?
They fined her, so they obviously thought she did something wrong.
Man, this is what I get for being illiterate.
Oops
Yeah that's what I said after my first community niece too.
I'm one of them. I use Sync so the whole caboodle feels like just one site to me, whether it's the Everything feed or my subscribed.
(I am not a techy person)
I also use sync, although I bought the lifetime ad-free version for Reddit years ago for like $5 and now it's $100 which I can't afford here which is a shame. Still, it's my favourite app and I'm very familiar with it.
switched from LW to discuss online
I think I’m up to 5 lemmy instances now. Various reasons that others will figure out as they gain experience.
Hopefully they can fix that issue and the communist communities stop having hissy fits.
they're prob ddosing themselves for failing the purity tests.
At least it's open for collaboration so people who can or help contribute to fix bugs for them are able to do so. That's the beauty of open source, anyone can help out.
