It's not just lemmy that's benefiting from Elon Musk.

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?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They fined her, so they obviously thought she did something wrong.

Man, this is what I get for being illiterate.

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 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.

I think I’m up to 5 lemmy instances now. Various reasons that others will figure out as they gain experience.
