My instance got 400+ new members in the last 2 days. It still won't appear in join-lemmy.org
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
My instance is https://lemmy.dbzer0.com. I am wondering if I set up something wrong in my config, or it's just a matter of time until we're listed.
How'd you get so many users so quickly?
paid bots of course!
I kid, I kid. I run reddit's /r/piracy, so I redirected its users to my instance during the blackout
damn nice. love that subreddit.
[email protected] then ;)
Won't that just split the community?
haha. nice. ill join. i run my own instance but gotta support one another!
Nice. Honestly I only started this because lemmy.ml admins said that they're going to get overloaded.
yea thats why i started mine as well. i got mine set up on a beefy server
I got mine on a shitty frontend and a beefy DB :D
ahah i'm a dev myself so been working on adding some features to my instance and making it run well diggit.xyz/
Our instance has grown 600 users in a week, and I've done literally nothing to advertise it. I think you get crazy growth whether you want it or not
Yes, atm I'm content not advertising it and keeping things organic to ensure the instance stays fast. I just am concerned that I have a bad config somewhere
