So… how’s Lemmy doing? Any plans to upgrade soon? It’s pretty slow and really hit or miss with loading. About 40% of the things either don’t open or fail to post.
And I’m fine with that! For now. Growing pains and whatnot. But it’d be cool to see some plans on how Lemmy is prepared to handle this growth. It already lacks a number of smaller communities I miss, so if there’s to be any reason to use it, it’s gotta at least function.
Look here: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list
Click “All Columns”.
lemmy.world has more than 4x active users (last month) compared to the second, distribution can get better.
Look for an instance with high uptime and low latency, and also with good amount of users to have good chance to resist over time. The one I’m using is great in all respects: lemmy.fmhy.ml.
Edit: one more resource showing overloaded instances:

where are you seeing 222k active users, I’m seeing 1/10 that number.
It was 222k when I wrote, in “1m” (last month) column. Current 24k seems more credible. lemm.ee also went down from 8k to 2k. lemmy.fmhy.ml grew a bit to 1.5k.
