If elon musk (or any far-right billionaire) bought Reddit, do you think there will be a mass exodus to alternatives like Lemmy, similar to the twitter exodus to Bluesky?

You're viewing a single thread.
probably back to Digg, as god intended. Lemmy is way too laggy to sustain any meaningful users number
It's laggy for you? In what way?
Have you tried another instance than lemmy.world? A lot of users culminated there for no good reason, which could contribute to whatever lag you're experiencing...
If an instance become laggy as soon as people start culminating there.. it will make lemmy always unable to allow influx of many people. I mean all people wont change instance all the time. I know I wont
Says the person who chose world…
I've used lemmy.world before and never noticed it to be particularly bad.
Well, your anecdotal experience differs from mine. World is by far the laggiest instance.
I've been using Mbin for months now so I definitely could've missed it. The micromobility community I run is hosted in .world though, maybe I should migrate somewhere else...
What do you think the millions of people flocking to a new service as refugees would do?
Do you think George Takei or Flavor Flav care about federation and instances, or did they just see that Bluesky works similar to twitter and make accounts.
Most of the people joining are going to use the default recommended instance because those people aren't joining out of technical interest.
I did it. The difference is that I eventually realized my error and moved elsewhere.
I was telling OP that they have the power to decide which instance they are on and that the slowness that they are complaining about is BECAUSE of the instance they chose.
