Lemmy doesn’t provide any analytics. Give this post a like and/or comment if you use this instance. I’m trying to gauge usage by humans.
I’ll let this census run for about a week to gauge usage.
Results might cause different changes to the services.
I’m doing this because the cost of running this instance is higher than most other instances due to reliability and disaster recovery implementations. I’m curious if I should back down many of these costs if we’re not used fully. I don’t see much activity directly in this instance.
I know that discuss.online wasn’t listed on join-lemmy.org for about a month due to a bug with the Lemmy crawler. They just recently fixed it with their redesign. We are now listed but no longer featured.
tl;dr; is this instance dying? Let me know if you’re here.
I agree completely, it seems that several are essentially abandoned, a couple seem to have been spur of the moment spare time projects that they no longer have much time for and one is being rewritten so they aren’t updating the existing app.
That would make a lot of sense. Which one is being rewritten, that seems extreme.
Memmy as the devs said they didn’t understand the programming environment when they made the original version.
That’s interesting. They’ve been keeping up with development. I don’t have any issues with their app. I’m shocked they’re starting over but they know better than I about the quality of their code.
Mlem have just released a beta to TestFlight that has 0.19 support.
