Running a Lemmy instance
  • Honestly, I'm interested in knowing some of this too.

    https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/administration.html says about 150GB RAM and negligible CPU usage.

    I assume an instance with users subscribed to active communities requires meaningful storage, but I'm not clear the sizes we're talking about (what's data growth per/day been like for some of the larger communities).

    EDIT: Likewise, I'd love to know if that 150GB RAM is fixed or whether that number grows with use.

  • Unhappy with Lemmy
  • It's less of a "UK/GreatBritain/British Isles" thing and more of a "You can have gmail/hotmail/outlook/etc and all have 'email'" kind of thing.

    All of them are speaking the same language/protocol so they all talk to each other even if they do things differently

    Mastodon is probably the most different since it's trying to be Twitter which is a very different "thing" than Reddit.

  • Totally get that’s the reason why the business choices are being made.

    The thing I’m noting is the counter productive tone being taken. If spez/Elon/etc would tweak their tone they’d likely be much more effective in pushing these things through (imho)

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Those are probably the highest profile examples.

    Everything else is way smaller scale, and often more about the tone than even what is being said. There's a general "how dare anyone push back" or a complete failure to understand what life is like (some of this overlaps with the "ok boomer" stuff).

    I'd point to:

    • Martha Stewart's rant about RTO
    • Many many of the "nobody wants to work anymore" rants we've seen
    • The tenor of Starbuck's anti-union actions
    • The communications I've seen from my (large) company and those at friends' (obviously not going to list which)

    It's not like I've been keeping a list but those are what come to mind first.

  • I said it in another thread but it seems like the past year has been a lot of masks off for the owner class utterly losing it about the peasants not getting in line.

    Honestly I wonder if the isolation they’ve had over the past few years has left their reality testing a bit off

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • His open anger has been pretty surprising, I feel like the past year has seen more and more of the owner class going totally masks off with anger when the peasants don’t just get in line to follow orders.

  • What if Reddit reverts it's changes?
  • I think that’s true for mastodon, but I suspect it’s going to be way less true for Reddit

    Twitter’s value proposition is roughly “one big giant conversation with everyone” and the federation stuff adds some complexity to that.

    Reddit already acted like a federation. There are ui and discoverability issues but they seem very solvable.
