Tomorrow, reddit will be shutting off 3rd party app access. If the twitter migration is anything to go by, that means that the wave of new users coming in the next few weeks will be much bigger than the wave we saw earlier this month.

Our lead techy admin @[email protected] is also recovering from broken bones and surgery, so she will be slower to respond to issues :)

All of that being said, we’re as prepared as we can be. We’re currently running our instance on hardware with excess capacity to spare, but who knows if it will be enough.

So, good luck to all of us, and see you on the other side :)

    I was gonna keep lurking Reddit until Sync shut down, now I’m on Lemmy. Took me a little bit to figure the platform out tbh, having third party apps for it now seems to be great.

      It’s pretty easy once you figure out where to sign up, and download whichever app you like best. It’s actually pretty flexible imo
