Yeah this is the main reason I won’t be giving up reddit 100% once the 3rd party apps go down. I definitely won’t be doom scrolling on my phone like I used to, but I 100% will still use reddit on my desktop as a research tool. There’s just nothing else like it for the amount of quality niche information atm.
Definitely an influx of users from reddit today. Honestly I’m impressed it’s holding up as well as it is atm. It’s a bit slower than usual, taking 3-5 seconds to load posts, but everything is still working 👍
Beautiful! I’m curious, how much carpentry and plumbing experience do you have? Looks like a pro job from here :)
I saw how long the list is and got kinda concerned I might miss out on content since I’m on beehaw, but now it just sounds like I’m getting sheltered from all the internet wackjobs lol
One instance might have separate rules than another, so you can use multiple to get around that. Also if one instance gets shutdown for whatever reason you’ll need another instance to browse through.
Generally though, no. One instance is fine and helps keep the system from getting overloaded with users.
I’ve been slowly switching away from google products the past year or so. Switched from chrome to firefox, and google search to duckduckgo, but maps is one I couldn’t give up. It’s just better than all other competitors IMO.
^ This is it. I was attempting to go there by typing the URL directly, not via searching. I’ve been able to get to a couple more via this method now, thanks!
Yeah, it’s a dangerous virus, but not widespread. When I looked into it, it was just a dozen of mods that I’ve never even heard of. Seems like it was caught before any major damage was made.
There are a couple now, but still very small, like 3 posts a day small
I’ve also been having some issues today connecting to @midwest.social. I was able to browse earlier today, but now cannot connect directly. I suspect it’s something server side with DNS, or its a load issue from too many users.
That said, the actual content is still there if you access it from another server, like https://lemmy.ml/c/main@midwest.social
Yeah but if this is what it takes to get a recipe search result that isnt 50 ads and a 5 page essay before the actual content, I ain’t going to complain.
