I am a technical and strategic founder developer experienced in web3, software engineering and building startups over the past 10 years.
I operate at the senior software engineer to CTO level, and am able to develop a company’s “zero to one” product.
Reddit quality has markedly deteriorated in my opinion.
Maybe it’s just my imagination.
Basically everything works but the content is less engaging!
Not for us Liftoff savages sadly
When in Rome…
I had a burst of activity on Lemmy and then slowly wound down to mostly lurking.
Not sure why. Maybe Apollo dying tomorrow will kick me again to participate
Some people love it, namely the ones that have most to gain.
So business owners, and extremely attractive waitstaff
It’s WAY faster than sharing an instance with normies. Think of it as your own personal caching server.
As for payment, you sign up to a VPS provider and give them your credit card, and pay for the usage.
Thanks! I recommended adding it to OP so others can find it.
If its UI based, it won’t actually be too hard for someone from community to add the tools. Here’s hoping!
I appreciate the scale of the problem you guys are having now, but are there specific limitations that you’re hitting that you can clarify on? Is it moderation tools, specific scaling strategies, etc?
With more information the more technically minded among us might be able to help.
My week has been kinda sucky, thanks
I mean, instances federating against each other is sorta webrings but on steroids right
Core memory unlocked! Also visit counters
We need webrings brought back
Crazy to think that reddit gold has been around for ten years
I mean “text based social media” is basically forums right?
Thanks! Didn’t even know it existed. I guess its one of the things that’s hard to figure out from the readme (no mention of who is the creator, or which socials, or which communities etc).
I’ll probably submit a PR later today…
Let me grieve, man!
Why delete though? Its all still there in Reddit’s database.
Do you have opinions tho
Does Mastodon and Lemmy integrate in some way since they’re both using ActivityPub?
I’m less driven by philosophy and more driven but whatever is available to use via my phone apps
