Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.
Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it's great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.
So, welcome reddit expats!
Can't recommend spinning up a second account on a smaller instance enough. It's made the experience so much faster than it was using my account on .world
broke: register on one of the main instances
woke: register on a small but well-run instance
bespoke: spin up your own instance
What are the space/bandwidth requirements? I've got plenty of space on my NAS, sounds like it could be a decent project.
I've had my own instance running on a puny 1VCPU/1G RAM instance at Vultr since the beginning of June and the resource usage has been negligible. Drive space is the largest resource it's consumed, it's at about 12GB of drive space consumed in a month.
