Comment on What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy?
flamingos@feddit.uk 3 weeks agoHas world really not enabled parallel sending yet? That feature was made specifically for them.
Single mod who didn’t want to create a meta posts to ask for more mods.
But the sidebar does say to DM them if you’re interested in modding. Not wanting a meta post is weird though.

I just checked the graph, its now 4.26 days.
Every time I had a mod refusing meta posts it lead to power tripping. Better safe than sorry

Even so, .world will eventually enable parallel sending, and even in the meantime aussie.zone only boasts 375 MAUs. I don’t know that such a miniscule minority is worth bending over backwards for and creating further fragmentation.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for choosing instances other than .world when setting up new comms. They’re too big. But while we’re still at a point where content amount is the primary concern and we’re trying to achieve critical mass I also don’t know if endless fragmentation is well advised.

But when? I don’t want to openly ask LW admins because the 0.19.9 migration took them a while, but it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen any time soon. I’ve seen someone mentioning that they might be delaying it due to resources issues, but their resource usage is not going to go down any time soon.
It is not only aussie.zone. Reddthat is also hosted in Australia, and then had to add a proxy in Europe to prevent a similar delay: reddthat.com/post/37387576/17377718. Lemmy.nz is in a similar case.
Lemmy.blahaj.zone is also Australian IIRC, but not sure where the server is hosted. Reddthat is only 429 MAU, but Blahaj is 1171

LW are hesitant to do major changes because if something goes wrong it disrupts the entire Lemmy ecosystem. It’s a direct negative consequence of them growing too big, but once they’re in this position I can understand their reservations. I too wish they’d implement upgrades faster but I have no reason to believe they will just refuse to implement an upgrade forever, that’s unreasonable to assume.
Lemmy.nz is what, about 100 MAU? And I know a Blåhaj admin is Australian but Fedi Observer has the server listed as based in Finland and hosted in Germany. Don’t know if that’s wrong though. Are their users also reporting delays?
