Bad bot fell asleep on shift.
Reports from a couple of mates who use it say they find this one buddy and slow to load. I assume they’re on a phone. Any ideas or can I inform them of improvements.
Still, this place kicks it’s butt for content also. The old daily thread seems to be a lot of the same questions people posted as posts before the great reddit blunder of 2023 which would pretty much be instantly downvoted to the bottom.

If Android, Connect or Jerboa are the best apps currently, with RIF and Sync to release Lemmy versions within a month or so.
