You know, it just occured to me yesterday that there might be a federated version of reddit. Looked it up and I was pleasantly surprised to see it's actually picking up a lot of users. Now if we could see a mobile app as polished as rif is fun, I'll be extremely happy. Move over reddit, let's go lemmy!
Just wondering though, how scalable is lemmy? What kind of hardware/connection would you need to host your own instance?

I'm happy for users to join the federated alternative!
Honestly this platform is welcoming & people are dignified through conversations. Also informative.
A nice website for looking for servers, platforms, and user numbers over time is: https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy
Also handy for getting a picture of how many lemmy servers there are and how big they are.
Joined Lemmy because of permanent suspension from the Snoosite for harassment, which I clearly didn't commit at that time.
Yup, I also got suspended for a week for "harassing" someone for asking them for proof because they were being a bigot. She realized she couldn't defend it and reported one of my comments, so another bigoted mod banned and flagged my account. All of her nasty comments stayed up. Isn't Reddit great? Can't fucking stand that shit.

As a redreader refugee, I saw nutomic's pinned message, but I'm not quite sure I get what to do or if I'm doing it right. A newb tutorial with URLs to the documentation would be neat.
Just letting you know I can see your message. This federation seems pretty cool.

When were you when when Reddit die
I was sat at home play Minecraft when Chris ring
'API is did'
'no'
And you?
Je trouve ça incroyable, je me suis inscrit ya à peine une semaine et les postes avaient genre 50-100 upvote max et la ça touche les 800. Puis c'est sympa de voir d'avantage de contenu.
Hey everyone, let's not be quick to downvote just because it's not in English today. As proud Lemmy users, let's seize this opportunity to showcase our incredible diversity. Let's demonstrate to the world just how unique and amazing we can be. Together.
Je comprend clairement ce que tu veux dire, même si je suis perso un peu perdu parce que en catégorie "Hot" ou "Active" j'ai toujours les mêmes premiers post qui reste pendant 2 jours entier et que c'est un peu frustrant quand je l'ai déjà bien vu

As a new user, I’m happy the site let me in. I like it here.
This is only the beginning and I’m glad to be a part of this journey this early one. Things should only get better from here (hopefully)
Happy to be here. :)
I think we really need to address the scaling issue, one option could be to use clichhouse instead of postgres

Ya love to see it.
Hi everyone, I'm new to Lemmy! I had difficulties signing up yesterday but finally got it working tonight. I want to support 3rd party reddit app developers and reddit mods. I won't be revisiting reddit during the blackout. So far I'm really liking Lemmy so it's a strong possibility that Lemmy may replace Reddit for me :)
Exciting times ahead :)
