Can I complain about people complaining about complaining?
Lemmy.world went under for a bit while they fixed server issues and upgraded the efficiency of the Lemmy backend, my guess is that would cause the dip in average posts.
Agreed. I'm under no delusions, when I pirate media I'm stealing. I personally don't believe it's immoral to steal from super corporations, especially considering how much they steal from us, but some people disagree and with these types of moral arguments there isn't a clear right answer. Even still, I think the majority of pirates are willing to pay for software or media when the service is priced well and more convenient than piracy.
The answer is clearly yes, though it's a shame, I had hoped Lemmy would avoid spam posts for longer.
Yeah, this happens a lot, especially when I'm tired. Luckily, I usually leave cues for myself so that I remember what I was doing.
I'm not really sure, but then again I also didn't really understand the point of Twitter, so I'm a bit biased.
As a note though, wefwef is FOSS. It's GitHub page is linked in the web app and there are instructions to host a version of it yourself, if you so desire.
Wefwef doesn't pull it from the API, it attempts to sim your points to calculate your karma itself. However, it varies in its accuracy, I recently checked and it said my comment karma was 8.
Not just that, but the code contributed to Lemmy by this debugging will make Lemmy run faster for everyone on every instance, which is makes the ecosystem that much better.
Lemmy.world just finished pushing significant stability and performance improvements to the Lemmy codebase and to their own server, and from what I've heard it's lead to significant improvements. I agree that Lemmy is unstable, but it's also beta software undergoing rapid improvement, and I'm optimistic on where it will be by the end of the year.
Dang, Lemmy cancelled I guess. Pack it up everybody, @GamingChairModel@lemmy.world ruined it for everyone.

It's also about search engine indexing. It's happening slowly, but I've noticed Lemmy posts are finally beginning to show up in Google/Bing search results. As this trend improves, more people will stumble here by accident and then join out of curiosity.
