👋 to all the newcomers, let me know if you need any help getting settled in!
Same for me. Woke up, launched Sync and got the message that it's not working anymore now and will work with Lemmy later. Immediately created an account here 👍
Sync has been great for me. Wonder why is wasn't more popular.
Well it's coming to Lemmy which I'm excited about
Hi everybody!
💖 to everybody who's making this possible. There's hoping that all the traffic can be managed
Speaking of traffic, if I were interested in running my own federate, what can I expect in terms of loading and where is the content actually stored, my single instance or distributed? I see the reqs. on RAM and CPU utilization but I'm actually more curious about usage data.
It depends on many parameters. Data from your users is stored locally. But then you have federation: every time one of your users subscribes to a community of another instance, your instance will cache it locally. You can manage how much cache it uses, but the cache is there of a reason.
I just joined after Apollo stopped working. I’ve been over at squabbles since the black out. No idea how this place works. Excited to dig in and figure it out though!
If you aren’t sold on the interface then check out wefwef.app. No affiliation - just spreading the gospel. It feels like Reddit on Apollo, but here instead.
welcome!
edit: just realized this isn't even my instance but w/e, welcome to the fediverse!
2 things that really helped me: https://browse.feddit.de/ to find communities then search in the communities tab with name like community@instance.name
if it doesn't pop up try typing !community@instance.name then community@instance.name again to see if it comes up
basically new communities wont show on your community search tab until someone else on your server has searched and subscribed or interacted
Was browsing Apollo, it ceased, I opened the Reddit app once, closed it, signed up for Lemmy.
I just moved Memmy into Apollo’s old place on the home screen. I’m not touching the official reddit app.
Same but from Reddit is fun
Haha, guilty. I went to mindlessly pull up RIF at about 7 pm CT and it wasn't loading comments, then I went oh, right, UTC it's midnight. And now two hours later here I am on lemmy
Same story here but with Sync on Android. Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
Sync is coming to Lemmy so it will be like you never left.
