Me. You can’t deny that lemmy and mastodon feel shoddy compared to the big names. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t use the other motherfuckers, but there are tons of times where I reload my feed and it errors or is empty.
Just the nature of running your own services, and I accept it.
But still, anyone coming from Reddit is going to 100% say it feels shoddy.
Saying it runs poorly is a huge reach. Lemmy runs great and gives me 75% of what I wanted from Reddit.
as an instance admin I will let you know that lemmy (the software) runs very very poorly.
You guys had very bad luck with the database, but other instances didn't have such problems.
