I know, it's hilarious how they want to be at the "centre of Europe" again. What? They have always been too special for that, and now, they're the laughing stock of Europe.

Join the Lemmy development room on Matrix https://matrix.to/#/#lemmydev:matrix.org

I use probably 7 or 8 plugins in total but these are the ones I couldn't live without:

• Templater
• Advanced Tables
• Natural Language Dates
• Text Snippets
• Todoist Plugin

Thanks, interesting point. I guess if the load is distributed enough, we won't have Lemmy devs asking for donations to keep the servers running under bigger and bigger loads 👍🏼

I don't think I'll be visiting each community to look at each thread, but in my experience on Reddit, once you're subscribed to a certain number of communities you won't be able to see them all in your feed, so that's why I wonder :) Though I guess Reddit has some kind of interest algorithm to show you stuff, as I noticed that if I visited a subreddit directly it would then start coming up in my feed more often - I wonder if Lemmy would have the same kind of thing - the more you interact with a community the more likely it is to come up on your subscribed feed.

Is it possible to run an instance without a static IP address?

Yeah I guess that's what I'm struggling with, say for example I'm into baking and there's a baking community here on .world, but maybe there's another one on .ml and wait here's a good one on .ca or something. So I'll be subscribing to three different baking communities in three different instances, it seems a bit redundant/divisive? But maybe it's just because it's early days, and with time the "best" communities will conglomerate and people will know the "best" baking community is on the .ml instances, but the best cooking one is on .world, etc, instead of subscribing to multiples of the same.

Thanks, so for example I see you've signed up in an AUS instance, would you have other accounts somewhere else or use this one in different instances?

Thanks, it also looks like if I want to sub to a community on a different instance, I have to search for it from my own instance, as I can't hit "subscribe" in the community list on another instance. Regarding losing access to your account, do people keep multiple accounts to avoid this? No idea how likely instances are to go down.
