One of the beautiful things with the fediverse is that I've just created an alt account on another instance, so I can

1: Reduce the load on lemmy.world servers

2: use the alt account if lemmy.world is down

[–] Diprount_Tomato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Idk, I feel too lazy to inform myself of what other instances are about and creating a whole new account for them

[–] luthis@lemmy.nz 20 points 1 year ago (12 children)

I'm commenting from lemmy.nz. If you have an account on another instance you can still access everything on lemmy.world

and with LASIM you can migrate all your subs over with a couple clicks.

I've been so hesitant about making another account, but this one seem very useful. Thanks for this one!

Read the two sentence long descriptions on join-lemmy.org/instances and use the same username and password if you're that lazy.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

sweet

see I always expected it to be like a "well, first you gotta have a MariaDB or Postgress" then "you'll need to configure nginx" followed by security gobblygook , and if you want a UI you'll have to figure that out on your own

[–] SuperSleuth@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's pretty simple.

Oh I see the problem! There just isn't enough RGB!

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Just download more RAM FFS! How hard can it be??

[–] LetterboxPancake@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see the issue. The ram isn't oriented correctly. And to overclock they should let the potato sprout.

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The CPU is also set to Mini, they should turn it to Wambo.

[–] LetterboxPancake@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some stickers would probably help as well.

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah, flames on the side make it go faster.

Better sick another RAM module in there for good measure.

[–] thehatfox@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Better seat them properly too - not all the pins of the current RAM are inserted into the potato. No wonder it isn't working!

[–] iRyu@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

We need to download more RAM

Gigabyte? Pshh, no wonder! Should've used Asrock.

[–] Resol@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's probably running Windows Me

[–] jelloeater85@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We're running Windows Vista thank you and please 💪😎💪

Rubbish. They have one hamster on a wheel, running so fast his feet are red hot.

I gave up with Lemmy World and made an account elsewhere.

[–] Disgusted_Tadpole@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sir, we’re gonna need another hamster

You mean GLaDOS has been responsible for running lemmy.world? Goddammit, Chell, look at what your shenanigans did!

[–] Wish13@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

ikr it crashes basically every day

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

It's getting DDOSed every day.

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 7 points 1 year ago

More than daily

[–] JTheDoc@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Without a fan on that heatsink, that's one.... Hot Potato.

[–] H2207@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

The potato's got a TDP of 15W dw it'll be fine passive.

They can't say it because their instance is down :)

[–] ultratiem@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

Adding another stick of memory would really turn this thing into a beast! It’s never wise to use a single stick.

[–] PeutMieuxFaire@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

PS2 and VGA connector, tiny heatsink, only 1 USB slot… That's an antedeluvian machine, no wonder it can't take the load ^^

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

We call them 'vintage potatoes.'

[–] bappity@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

how are you holding up? because I'm a potato >~>

[–] RandomVanGloboii@feddit.it 6 points 1 year ago

Clap

Oh good. My slow clap processing has made it into this thing. So we have that.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hey Lemmy admins, what can the users do to help?

[–] Vexcil@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think the idea is to disperse to other instances. If lemmy.world has 70% of users then it makes a bigger target for attack.

If we are dispersed then, even if lemmy.world goes down it would only effect a small portion of your feed.

Either way, the more spread out our net of users is the stronger the fediverse will be. I am going to move instances myself, although my content will still be viewable on lemmy.world. such is the power of the fediverse

Growing pains. I remember when Reddit had this problem. That was 8 years ago

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And again almost 13 years ago when the Digg and Slashdot migrations happened

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Always happy to see Linux on a potato!

[–] Smokeydope@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

smugly points out other servers exist

[–] TheCheddarCheese@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

going on the site is flipping a coin for whether it'll be up or not

[–] Stinkywinks@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Network error, Network error, Network error. This shit is worse than trying to stream a video with dial up
