Thank you for everyone’s patience while we were migrating hosts . I know I said “a few hours” and it turned out to be over a day. Clearly I need to work on my Scotty estimates. During transport the team found a backlog of extremely low effort memes caught in the pattern buffer and we had to go through the copies one by one determining which were the evil versions.
You may notice some wonkiness/slowness the next 24hrs as we get re-federated with everyone. Basically every other Lemmy instance will bombard us with traffic for a while.
Our new host is designed for Lemmy in particular, meaning in the long run we should see increased stability, improved load times, and better scaling as we inevitably become the dominant Lemmy instance!
Thank you guys for all the effort you put in, that and for the fact of how much y’all so clearly care. I don’t mind the place being down for a while if it means we have a better experience, especially considering it’s a free service (however I’d encourage everyone who can to donate at their Patreon), and if it makes your guys lives easier. Now. Just time to assimilate all these other lower lifeforms into our collective.
Also I hope that I wasn’t part of all the garbage memes that had gotten caught up. That’s one of the reasons I try to keep my posting spaced out.
This is a public conversation about my appreciation. Sorry I might be listening to the Subspace Rhapsody soundtrack again.
Patreon? Aye aye cap’n. Done and done. I’m not even on the instance but the content is now among the high points of my day. 🖖
I don’t think anyone would call your memes “low effort” lol, they are fantastic and probably a big reason why many of us are here!
