MODERATORS
Popular instances like lemmy.world have felt a lot of growing pains recently.
I've made a secondary account at sh.itjust.works for enhanced shit posting capabilities, since it seems to be more responsive at the moment.
I feel bad for the lemmy.world admins that have to keep up with the software needed and costs accrued to handle the world knocking on their doorstep. I hope advertisers hit them up soon so their bills become easier to pay. While advertising was annoying on reddit, I'm more than willing to put up with it on this instance of lemmy, the admins have earned it.
I think this is an unpopular stance here. I'm not certain how else admins keep things running, but my limited time on Lemmy suggests people are hostile to ad-influence on how things run.
with this pace of growth i wouldn't blame them it they got advertises. and i believe that most people here use adblock anyway
