What is the maximum number of active users on an instance before the financial burden gets too high for the admins?
Pretty straight question....

The funny thing about these DDos attacks on Lemmy World is that the hackers seem to forget that other instances exist.
If they’re trying to attack all of Lemmy, or the whole Fediverse, they’re doing it wrong. lol...
You can be banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone for calling out transphobia
I recently made a new account on lemmy.blahaj.zone, because I’ve been harassed and doxxed on my old account and I wanted a fresh start with a more lighthearted online identity that I could be more open about my gender identity on. I’d heard blahaj zone was good for trans people, so I made my account there. And yeah,...
What do you think some of the fediverse's primary stumbling blocks are?
For those that have poked around other fediverse stuff beyond Lemmy, and been around the spaces awhile, what’s stuck out to you as stumbling blocks, or basic user experience fumbles? Which parts do you think may be technical, and which may be cultural?

Did they give up?
41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!! (tech.lgbt)
I know that recent drama has caused a bit of uneasiness in the community for this platforms future, but I am optimistic for lemmy. It might be helpful to look to mastodon to learn how to move forward.
I was never extremely active on Mastodon until recently but I followed it’s development relatively closely from its infancy. And I will say that it’s really strange to watch lemmy face nearly identical issues that Mastodon did when it was in a similar development stages. (Though, some of the drama thus far have been...

60% of Lemmy-instances blocks Threads.net (lemmy.sambands.net)
Based on data from fedipact.veganism.social it seems that the majority of instances blocks threads.net. I’m sure there’s Lemmy instances with either approach that have slipped through the cracks as the list is a work in progress....

Pixelfed introduces Loops, a Short-Form Video App (wedistribute.org)
The Fediverse might be getting their own mashups of Tiktok, YouTube, and Vine sooner than anyone thought, thanks to the work of one prolific dev spearheading an effort. The best part? He’s helping other projects in the space, too.
Looking for fediverse platform for a minimal corporate website.
Some friends have websites. I encourage them to do. But they have them only to publish contact info, opening times, and a couple of photos of their business. What would be the best fediverse platform for this? Of course being able to post/toot news every now and then, is also a good feature.
