I see. But won’t it be more like Microblogging and not have any communities like Lemmy? I guess we’ll have to see…

That’s a fair point.
Entirely possible, yes.
Okay, if it’ll never enable federation then all our discussions are obsolete!
And how will this extinguish the fediverse? We’ll still all be here, won’t we?
More people isn’t always good. But imagine some organizations and journalists that for whatever reason still are on Twitter can now be persuaded to sign up to Threads. Well, now they’re in the fediverse.
And if the content from Threads is overwhelmingly bad we can always defederate and the fediverse still isn’t destroyed.
So, how do I picture the extinguish part?
Yes, people are panicking because Meta is coming for us. They’re taking two opportunities with one strike:
At the end of the day, more people in the fediverse is a win in my book. And if it becomes a problem there’s always defederation as a last resort.

Will people come?
yeah, that’s kind of an issue. Many communities exist more than once on multiple instances. Then again, this can also be a benefit. Maybe one of them isn’t to your liking -> choose another one. Or one of them goes down -> there’s a backup.
I like this answer. Thanks!
How do you feel about people joking about and using 404 far off from HTTP?
Also: yay, AMAs have finally arrived. Who’s gonna verify your identity, though?

Yeah, it not being saturated yet kind of invites more active participation IMO.
I don’t really have an opinion right now 🤷♂️
I see where you’re coming from but to me anything related to programming goes.
If you don’t want that then point people to the right communities and delete unfitting posts. I guess that’s the only way to keep it clean. As a side effect, this may actually help other more specific communities in the long run.
I’ve limited the resources available to Lemmy and pictrs and will see if it helps.
Sounds more like it, yes. I’ll keep an eye on it.
Maybe we should create a post in the support community?
I’m having similar issues with my instance where I’m the only one on it. I allocated more RAM to it now to see if it does anything.
There was a time when the typical redditor was a geek and weirdo 😅
