  • I’m not aware of the problems, so I can’t make such a post. Looking at this now and searching by URL for magazines on kbin and communities on lemmy instances both seem to work as expected, so I can’t reproduce what you’re seeing.

    I am aware of issues with lemmy.ml, searching for communities that are hosted on that server will often fail the first few times, and subscribing to communities that are hosted on that server often shows that subscriptions are “pending,” so if that’s where you are searching for communities I can see why it’d be an issue. Federation is a two-way street, so if lemmy.one can’t fetch remote data then it won’t work, but I’ve seen many other reports of people subscribing to remote communities just fine, so I don’t think there’s any issues we’re seeing on our end.

    Comments are pushed out by the community’s server, they’re not pulled in by yours. So if you’re missing comments from communities hosted on lemmy.ml for example, it may be that lemmy.ml is overloaded and not sending out comments to the fediverse properly.

    The other common issue with missing comments and posts is misconfigured language settings in your profile. You need to make sure at least Undefined and English are both selected, lots of people only have English selected which will make a lot of posts hidden.










  • I prefer the browser to apps personally, this is actually one of the main reasons I like Lemmy over Reddit and it’s unusable mobile view. You’ll find plenty of mobile app users here too and it sounds like it works fine, I’ll just caution that some (all?) of them sound like they’re feature-incomplete, so if you ever think something is missing from Lemmy, double-check on the website first, because it might just not be added to the app yet.

    Hi @[email protected]~ I’m the admin of lemmy.one (I know you also messaged me on Reddit). The specs for this server are roughly double the specs of lemmy.ml’s server, except we’re ~10x smaller than lemmy.ml at the moment, so we have lots of room for growth. I run mstdn.party which is one of the top 40 largest Mastodon servers according to the-federation.info, and I’m prepared to scale this community as well. If you want your community hosted on this instance, I’m happy to get that set up for you, we can talk further on Reddit.

    If you’re considering running your own Lemmy server instead, it is not particularly resource-intensive, I would imagine you could host up to ~1000 monthly active users on a server that costs no more than $30/month. I’m happy to invite you to some Lemmy admin communities who can provide assistance as well if you’re interested in going that route.
