I posted a gif in /c/kidsbeingderps. I am able to play the gif, but the people on other instances like sh.itjust.works and beehaw are unable to play the gif. They’re getting ‘No video with supporting format and mimetype found’ error.
On a sidenote, I see a comment on beehaw that I don’t see on lemmyworld. The comment is many hours old, so I don’t think it’s a matter of sync delay.
Right. Fortunately, I think there’s already enough of a community to sustain lemmy even if the Big Migration doesn’t end up happening as expected. A slower growth would suit it well.
If anything, it’s opening the doors to other things. Lemmy may not be the future… but Reddit certainly isn’t.
