Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️
An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I was talking to a friend about the recent issues Lemmy, and lemmy.world in particular is facing.
I suggested that while the scaling issues on the Lemmy software itself is being worked upon, maybe more "bland" country/region instances where people can join is a viable solution....
That I'd love to make an account on
lemmy.sea
(a Southeast Asian Lemmy instance)Edited typo(s)
It would be interesting to have a .ph instance though. r/ph managed to reach 1M subscribers alone, and the offshoot ph subs could justify having a ph-centric instance.
I flirted with this idea after reading up that Lemmy can run on a NAS. Good thing I didn't, seeing how the weekend traffic brought Lemmy to its knees.
A single stack might not be enough judging from lemmy.world's upgrade woes. And in hindsight, you'll also need a team of technically adept people aside from the admin/mod team. But it could also be interesting to have a single user instance for the sake of having a local copy of all the federated communities you subscribe to... as long as those instances would allow federation.
