Great article, except super cringe at the end suggesting Beehaw specifically and not saying "Lemmy" or something to indicate it is part of a wider service.
Unless Reddit reverses course ... a new site, such as the user-funded Beehaw ... will take its place.
Everything is faster. For the most part, your local instance will download posts and comments for any community you (or anyone else on your instance) is subscribed to. So when you log in, you log into your server and browse the content locally (posts from everywhere) while your server in the background constantly is receiving updates through the ActivityPub protocol.
I literally have no delay in using Lemmy in any way.
Liberals once again refusing to acknowledge their hippocracy. They must be fuming after Comrade Hakim's latest video
Every time the working class gains wins under capitalism they are short term at best. The new deal in the US is a great example. As long as capital controls the levers of power, it will always find ways to claw back the gains of the working class for for the name of profit.
The "all" stream would be all of the posts from the combined subs of the users on the instance. So if there's a community nobody is subscribed to, it won't appear on all. This is true of all instances. Many smaller ones will employ bots to crawl Lemmy and sub to communities to give the large instance "all" feeling.
That being said, yeah it's all preloaded onto your local server. There is no difference in speed. Doesn't matter if it's active/subed or new/all they all load the same
I'd highly encourage everyone to find smaller instances and leave lemmy.world for the immediate expats. Find something that aligns with your values. Or if you are technically literate enough host your own instance. If you have an old desktop computer you've already got everything you need.
This is why I'm happy to be on my own private instance and part of what really turned me on to Lemmy. It's trivial to spin up your own instance if you're technically inclined. You have complete control over what you see and aren't subject to some power hungry admin on some server like Beehaw. That's what makes the fediverse so great imo
thanks for using Leebra!
