That’s what she said
I hope this place will grow to become the next r/malaysia. F Spez and his antics.
Only just caved into my boycott of Reddit today to see if r/malaysia migrated. Really happy to see that we have!
I think will be a while lah before we get more traction here, but one less comment we make on Reddit, is one less piece of content they get.
I think it’s fine if we don’t get back to what we have like in r/malaysia, my experience from there is we can only see like a hundred of user commenting and then the 290k user is all lurker and never interact. Our highest post upvote is only around 4500, so around 98.5% of them couldn’t even bother to upvote a post, let alone comment or make an og post. The sub might be big but if you post/comment a lot or interact in the daily thread, the sub is actually pretty small and rather tight-knitted
Yeah, I understand that. Though I think the value of spaces like this is also to curate quality news and resources, which is what I used Reddit for a lot.
I think there’s a lot of good for having a space where people are sharing relevant and interesting news. Even if they’re lurkers, it doesn’t mean they’re not part of the community I guess?
I dunno where I’m leading this point lol. Just that I think everyone, even lurkers have a place as part of the community. Not everyone is social, but I think r/Malaysia & r/Malaysians made it feel like everyone is welcome regardless, and I’d like that feeling to carry on wherever the community goes.

Hello new place, hello old friends!
NGL the thread structure is a bit hard to follow here with how close the lines going down are. Maybe it’ll get easier over time.
honestly kinda like the empty look of this platform overall vs new Reddit/old Reddit’s layout
yeah, it’s a bit of a fusion of old and new reddit.
actually it kinda looks like the new new reddit, sh.reddit.com
I’m still a bit confused by federating across platforms although I’ve been on Mastodon since last year and generally know how it works.
Anyway, hi. Glad that the nyets have migrated off that other place!
Hi! Yes here’s the New World(or Vinland hehe)
Hi, I’m new here. 18/f shy
Sure bo? Don’t catfish ya.
18 huh?
I commented on the post in Reddit but I’ll comment here as well. Is there any way I can help with running the Lemmy instance? I am not an experienced dev yet(I suck at ops and support) but I would love to contribute in any way I can :)
Heyyy! Yeah we’re in touch, she pinged on the r/my announce post too. Thanks!

[email protected] so this is tagging everyone in this community ?
Edit: it’s like tagging a subreddit like r/aww
Refugee camp round #2. LOL
Hopefully no need for round 3 and this newfound colony will thrive!
Yup, but who’s paying for the server right now?
dcx very generously sponsored the domain and the hosting for the first year :D
is it ok to know how much it was?
You should probably ping dcx about this :)
Thanks for asking guise! It’s cheap, Lemmy is written to be very resource efficient! Domain is USD10/y, hosting is about USD20/month.
And hosting is actually overprovisioned and could probably be USD5-10/month. I got a slightly bigger VM just in case (2 CPUs, 2GB RAM). But I’m seeing CPU % at 2.5% with just one spike to 10% in the last day. RAM holding steady at 52%.
Zero issues covering costs for this experimental stage btw! We don’t know how this will go yet. And things have been good career wise lately. But yeah if we start seeing real traffic and need to pay for big boy servers, we may need to figure out something with the community!

Am happy to chip in a bit for the yearly hosting fees. Can’t sponsor cause RM purchasing power is too low arghhhh.
In the future can consider Liberapay to crowdfund from monyets here for the server because they accept MYR (no need to convert currency and deal with FTF) and you can contribute as low as RM 0.05 per week.

It verks!
I’m also happy to chip in a little RM to fund the operations
i got the notification! thanks for reaching out and thanks for doing all this as well.
Tagging seems … weird? @[email protected]
