Yeah another Lemmy problem is growing pains. If an instance does start to pick up traffic the hobbyists hosting the server will have to foot massive bills. That combined with the colossal learning curve make it an easy site to forget about.
Also hosting any instance to me is insane. If someone posted illegal material and it’s being stored on your personal server in your home that sounds like a one way trip to jail.
For some reason, lemm.ee (my current account instance) doesn’t allow me to upload pictures or change my profile picture.
Sigh. I guess I’ll just have to wait for the next big thing to come along and compete with Reddit.
I’m disappointed with Lemmy because I spent so much time here thinking it would be perfect one day. But that day never came.
Anyway, I hope you have a better experience here than I did.
