Lemmy.world active users is tapering off while other servers are gaining serious traction.
Lemmy.world active users is tapering off while other servers are gaining serious traction.
Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.
But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.
Give me that hopium guys! 💉

I have an account on lemmy.world, but when I ping it, I'm in the 100ms. I ended up on lemmy.ca where the ping is 3ms average, it makes a big difference in responsiveness.
To me lemmy.ca got my account because it uses a .ca domain so in essence we're supporting local... Or I guess national.
That's a terrible justification. lemmy.world is using Hetzner, and not a CDN whereas lemmy.ca is using Cloudflare, which is a CDN. Pinging is a terrible benchmark for comparing server performance.
What is a better way to compare server performance in this context? (Actually curious, sincerely asking)
One good way would be HTTP response times from the API, since that is not something that would be cached by Cloudflare at the edge.
I never said that lemmy.ca had more performance, I said the ping was lower and responsiveness was better.
Not to mention it has had severe secuirty issues and irresponsible mods.
