You’re awesome man! This is direly needed. I’m just wondering how on earth to publicize this before the madness that hits on Monday.

Any chance you could find a place to fit this in the join lemmy site and do a pull request before then? I know it’s a lot to ask, but it would be huge.

Maybe you could bring it up with the Kbin devs? I’m sure it wouldn’t be too crazily difficult to have it work similarly over there. Just need to swap /c/ out for a /m/. Probably similar needed over here to translate /m/ to /c/ too.

I hear you man. I went from active contributor to mostly lurking on Reddit, and it wasn’t even a conscious choice. Gradually, everything became very mechanistic. I knew what the top few comments would be before going to the comments. The churn became cyclic in nature.

After just a few days here, it was actually a little disconcerting how antagonistic and hostile people there are in the comments section. That’s just how people communicate, on a hair-trigger from flamewar.

I recognize your username, I saw what you wrote about SQL scaling. Can you imagine recognizing a username in a major subreddit in the reddit of today?

The dichotomy between the big communities which people subscribe to from all over Lemmy and the small meta/announcement/server issue communities for each individual instance is gonna be interesting to see develop as the userbase increases. Kinda like the difference between seeing people from your street everyday, then many more less familiar people in the city center.

This should be a good one. This is their home turf, after all, should be easier to research than other areas of the world.

Anybody know what the free update is gonna contain? Not read anything about that yet
