100% agree. I’m yet to notice programming.dev go down which makes sense when you consider the target demographic and that the admins probably fit right into it.
Yeah, it’s incredible how your choice of instance can give you a completely different experience (in terms of stability). Still, you can sub to any community you want, so your instance is irrelevant, unless it’s defederated from a server you like.
Yeah, I think there’s a sweet spot in using a mid sized instance such as this. It’s big enough to have a bunch of users hitting communities all over the fediverse, and to have some resources dedicated to the server, but small enough to have its own identity and not be a target.
The magic happens because of how your home instance caches communities from other instances. So your experience depends on the reliability of the instance you’re using, but not so much the reliability of other instances(within reason).
Thanks for the invitation. Though I’ve had plenty of unpleasant encounters with hexbears, I think I’ll stay on lemm.ee for now. Maybe I’ll move in the future when things get even worse.

I feel so safe here lol
Once I made my non-world account here, Lemmy is like a whole new rock solid experience!
Combined with the choice in apps, even though they’re still evolving, it’s great.

I love how this is now similar to when people would have usernames relevant to the conversation in Reddit.
Now, y’all just swoop in with the relevant instance 😂
Which was part of my reasoning for joining there, along with the fact that I’m a dev myself so it aligns with my interests.
If you think lemmy.ml is full of tankies, you should check out https://lemmygrad.ml and https://hexbear.net. They are a hundred times worse

I hope mine, lemm.ee, defederates from those instances too

I know that they have not been defederated from lemm.ee. I meant that I hope lemm.ee defederates from them in the future.
