[sh.it.post] We're #5! We're #5!
(sh.itjust.works)
Just saw this on AskLemmy at .ml, thought this and chuckled, and now here we are.
Will take the opportunity to thank our admins for what they do, and all you humans for being here and generally being cool.
Yes, MUCH. Sh.itjust.works is much faster as well. I don't know if it's because LW is still on 0.19.3 or what, but it's a very significant difference.
LW isn't associated with the US except for the fact that they're keen to kowtow to corporate censorship to avoid being sued and the like. Since they're by far the most visible instance on Lemmy I can't really blame them and it's probably better that they're more cautious to possibly take some of the heat off of everyone else. As you said, they didn't serve my needs, so I went elsewhere - having that option is what I love about the fediverse.
If LW helped you migrate from Reddit to the Threadiverse until you knew more what you were looking for and could find a true home in lemm.ee that meets your needs better, then both of them sound awesome at their respective roles to me.:-)
