OK, I’m lying, I’ve only been upvoting.
But I click on something to upvote, the click registers, but then does not complete and the counter resets to what it was before I clicked.
I also notice very slow posting of things like this, or comments on existing posts. I’ve got a modern computer and gigabit fiber.
This is great news actually. Reddit users are discovering alternatives and visiting Lemmy & the Fediverse.
Yes and no, it’s great there are a lot of users, but it’s bad that the slowness might stop them from using lemmy.
Oh I hope not, but you have a point there.

Yup, exactly this. The lemmy devs are working hard to improve the app to handle all the new users but for now things will be a bit slow :)
That’s strange, I downvoted you and it worked perfectly. Just kidding I upvoted you really
@ruud is upgrading the server today, this should disappear shortly. Lemmy.world grew very quickly from <1k subscribers to > 12k in less than 4 days.
This happens to me when I’m using my browser (Firefox). Have to click the upvote a few times for it to persistently register.
If I may suggest to click it once and wait for it to register, Lemmy server will receive the request but it will take a little time to register due to server load. I suspect multiple clicks will toggle the upvote on and off.
Yes, that’s sensible advice for impatient people like me. :-)
Yes, it actually seems to work the first time even if it’s not displaying correctly.
