  • I stopped using discuss.online as my home instance after it was unavailable through Sync for a month. 😕

    And to be honest, it hasn’t seemed like discuss.online has a plan for growth and long-term sustainability? Like others have mentioned in the comments, I would have preferred to find an instance outside one of the big main ones to use as my home base. But as I’ve been using lemmy I keep finding different ways it feels like even with federation, it’s just easier to be on one of the big instances – especially for better search and availability of content.

    Besides that, not having any revenue model other than donations doesn’t seem sustainable to me. And the wide array of technical issues (e.g. integrating analytics if they’re not already included) that pop up from lemmy still being so early in development seems to be beyond what a single administrator can reasonably handle.
