Hi everyone, You may have noticed a small change on the website. From now on, upvotes work just like on Lemmy - they are equivalent to Mastodon’s “favourite.” You can boost a post using the button that replaced “favourite.” Another change is that you can now rate and boost your own posts. Boosting has a one-time effect - it elevates the post to the top of the “Active” list, adds points used for the “Hot” section, and appears as a boost on other instances.
A language selection dropdown has been added to the footer - thank you all for that!
It seems that the Docker update has also brought significant improvements.
Now, I want to focus on bringing the instance creation instructions to a satisfactory state.
I promise to get back to your questions and comments as soon as possible - there have been quite a few of them. But for now, I need to keep an eye on the queue charts to make sure I don’t stumble and accidentally cause problems for other instances ;)
Oh, and here’s some good news: my application for Fast Forward has been accepted, and I’ll do my best to make it truly thrilling here soon ;p
Meanwhile, I’ll be away for a bit, but I’m constantly monitoring reports, the matrix, email, and mentions.
Have a great day!
Very cool! What kind of services does Fast Forward give you?
I’m asking because beehaw.org has mentioned that storage space is an issue for them. I saw a post where one of the admins said he was concerned that media-heavy communities (e.g. sharing gameplay clips) could be a problem for their instance. And the admins of lemmy.ml have just outright said “we’re full.”
Does fastly give you storage space?
