For those that weren’t there for the mastadon growth, it came is several waves. the reddit blackout begins tomorrow 6/12. Are the Lemmy sysadmins expecting a second wave of growth? If so how big?

    Other than creating content and interactions, one thing I’ve been trying to do is make sure to search up and federate any cool new remote communities I come across, even if they’re not something I care to subscribe to myself.

    In theory that makes it slightly easier for other people joining my instance to find things when they search, because I feel like the weird “search and get no results but then wait 15 seconds and it’ll change to pull results” behaviour is a major source of confusion for new people atm.

      How do you “federate” a community, I like this idea and would like to help, but I don’t know how! :-)

        Search for the community’s url in your instances’ search.
