I would say right after reddit. So many reposts on Lemmy from reddit.

Not cheating, but without her knowledge or permission it just kind of makes you a piece of shit

I smell a lot of .onions in my future

I have been a long term user of AG Home. My only complaint is some streaming services. We have YouTube TV and the audio gets out of sync sometimes…can confirm it was in fact AG but I guess it could be the older Pi I was running it on.

My instance is waiting for you

Too true but keep in mind lemmy isn’t supposed to be a replacement. Reddit hoppers want it to be.

Getting attached to any account is not recommended. Hopefully most are pretty set but I know personally if I was too run into financial trouble I would shut it down. Bigger instances do get some amount of patrons who donate to them.

Right, and thats the issue. I host an instance but we only have a few users. Our instance does run very very well though because we don’t get a ton of user traffic.

Currently no, there isn’t a way to see that granular of detail. On my instance I have details about any defederated (blocked) instances. Currently there are none.

But there are pros and cons of joining smaller server. Since mine is small we don’t see a large list of communities, I make a point to go through and subscribe to a bunch everyday so my users can get the best experience. But without others doing some of the leg work it can be challenging. Bigger instances like lemmy.world have “seeded” with communities all over because of their large user base. Not only does lemmy.world have a ton of communities but their users have subscribed to communities outside the instance making it discoverable to others.

This is why we need users to spread to more servers and create communities in them. If lemmy.world goes down that shouldn’t result in half of lemmyhub disappearing.

Well hey, my instance is small
