& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

Is Lemmy.World a bit laggy for everyone else?

I wonder is it on my end or is it because of the new traffic it's getting?

Yeah its getting the hug of death right now.

Ive got a second account on another verse just so I can browse .world lol

I feel like lemm.ee is a bit faster rhan lemme.world. They're doing some things I like for scalability (albeit at a cost that'll need to he supported by donations).

Yeah it's pretty slow at the moment. Think it's getting overloaded by the influx of new users, which is a good thing in retrospect. Hopefully the system admins can scale the servers to meet the demand.

A lot of lag, but with the influx of users, I don't blame them.

Oh yeah, it was chugging yesterday and seems to have gotten a second wave of new users today. They've had to take it off the recommended list for new users to help lighten the load, but seeing as it has shaken out to be the prominent instance thus far, I just hope Ruud can expand the servers fast enough. Hopefully some rich Reddit refugees can donate to the Open Collective in lieu of buying Reddit gold.

I'm patiently trying to learn Lemmy and find communities. I hope this will be my first comment on here. I keep getting logged out every time I open a thread. Then can't log back in to post what I wanted to post.

But 1600% growth will cause issues.
