“Active” is a verb. You intentionally left out the verb part (posts, comments). When you consider we’ve existed for less the month and have 45 posts in Boomer Shooter… That’s 1.5 posts per day, out first month in existence. That’s activity. That’s active. Your cynicism not withstanding Team Red has existed for almost two weeks… It’s growing faster than any of the other communities on this board… Because “activity.” Really, if you understand activity and what it looks like and how it scales… We might believe you know what you’re talking about… Might.
This will help you find US based instances if that is what you are after.
Pull up a list of Lemmy instances with 100% uptime. That’s not a big list. Look for a location in the U.S. you find an even smaller list. And if your monolingual and speak English bestest… well, then you’re in the realm of a vary small list indeed.
lemmy.ninja is second on that list for size AND speed of growth. Plus, where else are you going to find communities that teach you how to use the Fediverse to your advantage? Drop by and subscribe to the boomer shooter community… We all know they did it right in lo-fi…
I’m providing a best guess on that. I may be wrong. Who knows maybe it’ll be “xtxt” or xt^2 pronounced “extasy.”
Makes complete sense. Thank for clarifying.
First, stop talking to me like I don’t know this already. Second, these facts don’t make me wrong or you right. The implication of what was said is that you run VM’s on docker. The fact is, you don’t. Stop arguing.
The way, what was stated, was stated, indicated that docker runs virtual machines. It doesn’t. It runs containers, right?
If you’re running it using Docker, that’s a container not a VM. And that IS the way you would want to run it, in a container. They’re easy to set up, easy to use, and easy to maintain.
Right up until Twitter shut everything off unless you were logged in and throttled you if you are logged in I’d have agreed with you… YouTube is preventing you from watching YouTube if they decide they can’t advertise at you… The point is, big social media has come up with creative ways to make using their service miserable if not impossible. Even reddit is doing it right? I find your assessment of possible versus likely incomplete at best.
This argument is absurd. What happens, right now, if Reddit shuts down? Where can you take your account to access what’s on Reddit?
The fact is federations CAN be set up this way. Lemmy is new and the people providing the service are working to get things functional as fast as possible. Federating authentication is possible. Can you do it right this second? Nope.
Can you do it with Reddit right this second?
“I’m not gonna do this because it doesn’t work the way I think it should.” News flash, Reddit doesn’t work that way either, while you’re not doing it on Reddit…. Lemmy CAN work that way, Reddit… yah good luck.
I get it, mediocrity now is better than improvements later…
Glad to be of service.
I created a process to remove the bot accounts from my database without crashing my site. I have tested and it looks like all functions are working. If you need help because you suddenly have thousands more accounts than you would suspect ask me for the procedure. I’ll gladly provide it.
I was able to identify bot accounts by looking at creation times. They accounts are grouped by “batches” where the account creation times are within seconds of each other. That’s not typically going to happen with random humans creating accounts.
