IG was always much bigger than Reddit.

Good to see people moving to Pixelfed though.

I would say it's a different type of growth. A topic that regularly comes up is consolidation of similar communities (the most recent example being !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com as the suggested alternative to !privacyguides@lemmy.one !privacy@lemmy.world , !privacy@lemmy.ca , !privacy@fedia.io etc.)

So it's a type of growth, but more internal than external.

Having two communities seems better as people busy with keeping their communities active aren’t automatically interested in promoting the Fediverse externally, and vice versa.

Same reason there is !fedimemes@feddit.uk separated from !fediverse@lemmy.world , the intent and type of content are different

The new one would replace !growthefediverse@slrpnk.net

!fedigrow@lemm.ee would stay the same. I edited the OP to clarify

Hello everyone,

@spaduf@slrpnk.net created !growthefediverse@slrpnk.net to synchronize efforts to promote the Fediverse on existing social media (e.g. that Reddit thread on /r/Technology which got a few people joining Lemmy)

Spaduf wasn't aware of the existence of !fedigrow@lemm.ee , which is an existing community focused on the internal growt on the Fediverse, mostly between mods and regular posters trying to make Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed communitied grow.

To avoid confusion between the two communities, we are thinking about a potential new community to replace !growthefediverse@slrpnk.net, but with a different name.

Potential options we came up with:

What do you all think? Do you have any other ideas for the name of that new community?

Edit to clarify as it seems it wasn't as obvious in the post: the objective is to keep !fedigrow@lemm.ee with its current focus: growth of communities already here (so more internal), while the new community would be about advocacy and promotion of the Fediverse on other places (so more external).

Having two communities seems better as people busy with keeping their communities active aren't automatically interested in promoting the Fediverse externally, and vice versa.

A few Lemmy.world users have been complaining that the website is slow for them, what is your experience? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Most recent examples, seems like Americans users are mostly impacted.

the site (or at least lemmy.world) is sooo slooow. Basic functions like loading images take me back to the dial-up era of “click the image then do something else while it loads,” which is downright ridiculous in the 2020s. Again I’ve stuck with it because I want to support the fediverse, but 99% of users won’t.

Additional example

It also doesn’t help that it’s slow as fuck on desktop compared to the others I tried.

Is lemm.ee much faster than lemmy.world for you?

Yes, MUCH. Sh.itjust.works is much faster as well. I don’t know if it’s because LW is still on 0.19.3 or what, but it’s a very significant difference.

So slow unfortunately

https://lemmy.world/comment/14661546

Well, it took me 2 page load attempts and 60 solid seconds to get as far as being able to leave this comment, so… Yeah, sometimes it is slow as dirt.

https://lemmy.world/comment/14676091

Images have been fine for me, I’ve given up on videos

https://lemmy.world/comment/14676052

Note: if this post seems familiar, it's because it was originally posted on !asklemmy@lemmy.world . It has since then been removed as a "support question". Not sure why asking people if they've been impacted about the instance that hosts 30% of the whole Lemmy userbase is a support question, but I'll revisit that tomorrow.
