Tomorrow, reddit will be shutting off 3rd party app access. If the twitter migration is anything to go by, that means that the wave of new users coming in the next few weeks will be much bigger than the wave we saw earlier this month.
Our lead techy admin @[email protected] is also recovering from broken bones and surgery, so she will be slower to respond to issues :)
All of that being said, we’re as prepared as we can be. We’re currently running our instance on hardware with excess capacity to spare, but who knows if it will be enough.
So, good luck to all of us, and see you on the other side :)
RIF has stopped working for me in the last hour, time to finally ditch the Reddit grip and jump ship, honestly not a massive difference in community now, and hopefully some of the smaller niche subs will move over to Lemmy, enjoying my experience so far!
When RIF’s infinite scroll came to a sudden halt, it finally became real. Hope this community can sustain a few thousand refugees.
