    Is there a "normie" or more mainstream instance for Lemmy?

  • Kind of a silly question, but asked honestly: How much do you think the name "communick" matters when trying to convince "normies" to try it out? Would they see that, read it as a play on "Communist", and assume it's only for extremists or whatever?

  • At a minimum, you'd want to find an instance that blocks lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net. lemmy.world already blocks both of those though. The next instance you'd probably want to block is lemmy.ml, which not many other instances do. beehaw.org does, but also blocks lemmy.world, which cuts out a lot of the threadiverse.

    If you felt like it, you could explain how to do instance blocking on your user profile. That might be too much for people that don't really care either way and just want stuff to work, though.

    @Blaze@feddit.org might also have opinions on this, having spent a lot of time over on Reddit convincing people to try out Lemmy

  • Source hasn't been released, but the dev has said it will be and there's no reason to doubt that IMO. Same dev as pixelfed which is open source and federated

  • Pretty impressive you're running it on a pi, even with how nice the 5 is 👍

    Are you running all of the services at grey.fail on the same pi?

  • How big of servers are you using? Is the load just from syncing with pixelfed.social?
