So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

      Yeah, like if you miss /r/AmITheAsshole, just make a community for it.

          To make a link to a community, use the [link markup](/like/this) but with the URL being specifically /c/community@instance.name. For example: [this](/c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world) to make this.

          (If it’s unclear, view source on this comment.)

          If this seems weird, look up “relative URLs”. /c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world is a relative URL that will show up correctly for anyone on any Lemmy instance.

              I feel like a lot of optimisations like this just may not have come up as a priority previously, because there hasn’t been much activity on Lemmy to require streamlining this stuff. At least, that’s what I hope; I’m crossing my fingers that once the Reddit hug server explosions have settled down, they’ll be able to start improving features like this, now there’s people here to use them.

                oh for sure, and once I’m done being so busy with work I plan on jumping into the frontend code and optimizing, I hope we won’t be needing a RES-like thing because open source allows us to just plug it into the code directly.
