Lemmy has multiplied it's number of users (maybe more accurately accounts) in just few days. How much do you think is the percentage of bot accounts? Is Lemmy having problem with bot farming?
Sorting the posts on this sub by "top of all time" you see it's mostly memes. Is there a sub like this where people actually discuss solutions to these problems and encourage activism? Otherwise this sub is more of a way to distract potential activists with emotional venting.
The sidebar mentions one of the community goals is to discuss car alternatives. I do see some posts like this after scrolling more. Maybe I just need to spend more time here to calibrate. Anyway, I hope that I get to see more posts in the future that discuss alternatives and opportunities for activism!
Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.
This site is currently struggling to handle the amount of new users. I have already upgraded the server, but it will go down regardless if half of Reddit tries to join....
It seems like a common issue among ActivityPub services that people flock to the most popular instance and this causes problems. Why can't load balancing happen transparently? It seems like the main thing that actually makes a difference between which instance users want to join is what the moderation will be like. Like I don't want to be forced to sign up for an instance with a high amount of censorship compared to the rest of instances.
So maybe user registration should start from a centralized site that can describe the trade-offs of joining the various instances, and users don't get to select their specific instance by default, but rather they select based on a loose moderation policy, and then load-balancing occurs on the backend.
EDIT: I also want to be able to migrate between instances without losing my community subscriptions.
Calling all devs! We need moderation tools that can deal with the growth of Lemmy. (lemmy.world)
what if you are the nth person on line? (lemmy.eco.br)
Lemmy exceeds million users (maybe more accurately accounts) (lemmy.world)

Hi everyone!...
Not loving the prevalence of memes here

What kinds of things from reddit would you like to see Lemmy avoid as the user base grows?

lemmy.ml is overloaded, use other instances instead
