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 :)
I kept my reddit account until today, coping that Reddit will go back on their word and allow Apollo to continue working. Granted, it didn’t. So I looped shreddit with a PowerShell script and sealed the deal today and just put the final nail in the coffin and deleted my account. Guess it’s Lemmy from now on.
Apollo and RIF already stopped working, so I’m not sure if the influx of users will increase that much tomorrow.
On that note, jeroba throws an error every time i open it about how this instance is older than the lowest supported version, but it seems like i can still use most of the sites functinality? Just thought i’d mention that
I switched from Jerboa to Thunder today. It’s so much nicer, but still missing some features. The web app Wefwef is pretty nice too.
