Still not enough content.
I already feel the slow down in activities.
I’m in a weird spot rn. I go back to reddit because there’s more interesting stuff to see, but the official apps is so bad, that I come back here. Also People here seems more intelligent on avg.
I like lemmy because there is no ads and no gold and premium stupid stuff like NFTs and 50$ awards.
I liked the awards ideas ,but damn paying up to 100$ for digital emojis that everyone will forget in a day?
The big downside is the lack of embedded videos. Of course videos takes a lot of server power compared to text. But I hope we find a way to implement this in the future.
I think we should have a public board that shows the instance hardware spec and the finance. So we can set donations goals to upgrade servers or keep them afloat.
Have you been contributing and participating in some of the content discussions in the Fediverse? I found that I was a consumer and just came to Reddit to read stuff. But with Lemmy I’m far more interactive.
Cool idea on having a public board, similar to the modlog. Perhaps that idea should be suggested to the Lemmy devs if it is important to you:

While I’m not sure about the information for your instance, lemmy.ca, I’m with lemmy.world for now. Lemmy.world is hosted by the same people who run mastodon.world.
Lemmy.world posts a blog update that outlines their hardware and financial costs.
“The current VPS couldn’t be resized that much anymore, and load was going up with all the new users. So I bought the same server at Hetzner: a 32-core/64 thread 128GB RAM dedicated server.”

Eh, I used reddit before they had their own image and video hosting, it was fine as long as you had RES. Maybe imgur can get some more traffic.

There’s embedded videos, no need to host them yourself - you just need to link to somewhere supported.
It’s on my to-do list for my app, if no one has figured it out on the web maybe I’ll help out. It’s not that hard to do but it’s not exactly fun
I mean that you don’t need to change apps to play a video. I use Jerboa .
