The next few days are going to be wild. Brace yourselves - eviltoast

Tomorrow, reddit will be shutting off 3rd party app access. If the twitter migration is anything to go by, that means that the wave of new users coming in the next few weeks will be much bigger than the wave we saw earlier this month.

Our lead techy admin @supakaity@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also recovering from broken bones and surgery, so she will be slower to respond to issues :)

All of that being said, we’re as prepared as we can be. We’re currently running our instance on hardware with excess capacity to spare, but who knows if it will be enough.

So, good luck to all of us, and see you on the other side :)

    Get well! Hopefully it won’t be TOO bananas since I like the quietness without all the riff raff and bigotry of the other sites :P

      Agreed! I’m a part of the reddit exodus, but I’ve been looking for alternatives for a while. A shame so many of the early options were so racist/fascist. Here’s to a federated community without all of that nonsense!
