Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.
But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.
Give me that hopium guys! 💉
I have an account on lemmy.world, but when I ping it, I’m in the 100ms. I ended up on lemmy.ca where the ping is 3ms average, it makes a big difference in responsiveness.
That’s a terrible justification. lemmy.world is using Hetzner, and not a CDN whereas lemmy.ca is using Cloudflare, which is a CDN. Pinging is a terrible benchmark for comparing server performance.
What is a better way to compare server performance in this context? (Actually curious, sincerely asking)
One good way would be HTTP response times from the API, since that is not something that would be cached by Cloudflare at the edge.
The fuck did you just call this? The threadiverse? Nu-uh, fuck the meta fucks, this is the Fediverse.
It’s not a bad name. It’s the fediverse, but for threaded conversation. The threadiverse nickname has been floating around far longer than Meta’s rushed Twitter clone.
Threadiverse predates threads I’m pretty sure. Reddit is composed of threads, reddit fediverse being threadiverse makes sense. Maybe less so now though.
