I opened sync to a blank page about 6 times before I had to uninstall it and I still find myself opening the folder it used to be in. I pause every time and sigh before I go find something else to do. I’m excited for the upcoming mobile apps for Lemmy and hope this can be a new home / refuge from the sadness that is now Reddit
I find myself more willing to comment/participate now. I’m not sure if it’s because I feel that I am getting in from the “beginning” or if it’s just because the community feels more “real”, but there is definitely a difference from Reddit.
That looks amazing! I’d be so excited to eat this but also terrified to eat it because it look like art.
Honestly, I think the platform is pretty stable if you take out the outages caused by DDoS. Let’s also be honest, would anyone be shocked if those DDoS’s were actually sourced by a competitor who lost users to this platform?
It takes a ton of time and effort to be able to build robust DDoS mitigation strategies, even for Fortune 500/100 companies. Sure, you can throw yourself behind a known mitigation company, but their out of the box rules don’t always work for you. Most of the time you go behind them in a “transparent” mode and begin slowly deciding what is and isn’t a real threat. Volumetric attacks are easy to deal with - “hey, that’s fake traffic, block it.”. Attacks like the admins of lemmy.world have talked about are application layer and require much finer tuned filters. You can’t just immediately say “block this” because you may block legitimate traffic.
I think it’s more about getting the time to be able to develop the features mods want after dealing with how to protect the site, than it is about “stability of Lemmy”
Have you considered that maybe, just maybe, that driver of that truck is the one who is doing your bathroom/kitchen/whatever remodel and NEEDS that room to carry the supplies for that work?
Can you provide sources from this? I’m genuinely curious, the highest I’ve heard was $80,000 and it was a campus department with endowment funding.
Also, I wouldn’t count overtime as part of the salary. Having to work that much is going to put extra stress on you, make you irritable, wear you down, etc. and result in turnover.
