I love Lemmy but your question is legit. I just signed up with lemmy.world because lemmy.ml is slow/not responding.

Before making a post in lemmy.world guess what? lemmy.world isn't responding. I know they have scheduled maintenance at 9 CET but it was 20 minutes before that.

 

There are weird things happening in the-federation.info page:

  1. Users count is fluctuating for a few days
  2. Some instance report wrong numbers such as lemmyonline.com which reports 97,024 posts where as the actual posts are less than 50 posts

Same here.. it’s frustrating, loading a post would take like 10 minutes.

Hopefully Lemmy admins/developers would solve this issue. It’s the only social media I use now.

Old.reddit would not show comments anymore. It will direct you to reddit.

So I believe they might stop working at any moment.

I did use pihole to block it. Sadly, not everyone have the technical knowledge to do so.

That’s why I’d recommend apple products even though they’re not that great.

This is why I don’t buy Android.

The software isn’t optimized enough from smoothness and battery consumption perspective.

Also, the ROM that’s usually comes from the manufacturer is either spyware, bloated, or just crap. You need technical knowledge and risking bricking your device to install custom ROM.

The hardware, which is my least concern, depends on the company you buy from.

My SONY smart tv (with apps disabled) would phone home like ~200 times a minute.

Losing Apollo was the main reason.

However this whole saga unveiled other disturbing things such as how Reddit is leveraging its communities for advertising in this post: https://lemmy.world/post/837198

Even if they make it free, I’m not going back.
