I get time out on every single post I make and have to refresh the page, also every time I sign in.
You must log in or # to comment.
Maybe try migrating to a smaller instance? Lemmy.world is massive so that may be a part of it.
Would that help? I tried signing up to Lemmy.ml since I want to post on beehaw too but it timed out and didn’t let me join.
lemmy.ml is also very large, so I would look for something smaller. you can try vlemmy.net It isn’t that small, but it seems to have 100% uptime from stats.
Okay then. I’ll try vlemmy. Thank you.
the major issues I have with the platform are very minor things but are more QoL issues:
- up/down voting on a post or comment doesnt always happen - however, if I open the post or the comment thread in a new tab, I can see that it did occur.
- delays in displaying that a comment was successful. sometimes the above method works, other times it doesnt. sometimes the comment will just not go through and I’ll give up.
- notifications for new messages do not disappear from the top bar when I have read them, I have to refresh the page.
other than that, lemmy seems to be a very stable platform. hopefully 0.18 fixes some of these issues.
What’s funny is I experienced all of these issues on the reddit app too
Give it some time. Devs have had to go from a nonexistent community to tens of thousands. It will take some time to iron out the kinks especially with distributed open source developers. As for ‘soon’ I’d say probably a week at the absolute minimum. Growing pains of a new technology
I guess you’re right. I’ll try switching instance and hopefully that will help.
Same here, although it’s only like 90% of my posts. I figured it must be on my end, but I guess not.
I know there’s been a spike in users but like cmon. Lemmy has been running for like 2 years. Hexbear has just migrated over and all of their users are already complaining that the site is terrible.
