I noticed my hot feed on Lemmy.world is more up to date than on Lemmy.ca plus some other odd behaviour.
I read that to keep hot feed working well, instances need restarting every 6 hours or so.
How often do you guys restart?

And a continent is just a really big island.
Therefore a continent is actually just a big mountain.
I’m 100s of thousands behind all my peers who bought before the pandemic now because of this.
It’s likely that I’ll never catch up to them despite having a higher paying career.
Porn is literally what drives technology innovation.
Porn on Reddit was probably a good 10-20% of all it’s traffic.
As history has shown, a lot of the features that come to Lemmy will be added because porn. Embedded videos for example.
And as far as I can tell it’s just pictures right now.
Let say you comment somewhere that you make minimum wage, their algorithm picks up on it and now they have you as a low wage earner in their database.
This is a massive over simplification but illustrates the point.
And done. I love federation.
It won’t be like this forever, simply growing pains of a brand new rapidly growing platform.
I hate shorts and I’ve unsubscribed from any channels that make shorts.
I don’t subscribe to you for a 30 second adhd friendly clickbait video. Major respect lost for some channels.
I think this could be a ticking DOS time bomb.
Someone manages to spam upload massive files to the largest Lemmy instances could wipe out a ton of smaller ones.
Not to mention scalability wise this seems like a nightmare… eventually the largest Lemmy instances will have petabytes of media data with 100s of gbs coming in per day, giving other instances no chance to sync with them.
I think the system architecture needs a significant review. This won’t scale.
