Looks like an excellent way to earn a broken freakin' neck.

I at least modify the layout Windows to be more like 7.

Or just specific software that is not available on Linux.

It's completely necessary.

How else does one click hotkeys while standing?

That new ugly UI.

It's so damn cluttered.

Bad news, Reddit is a zombie.

One aspect I'd love (and is apparently in the works) is swapping instances while keeping your history. A migration tool of sorts. Would help.

Still the roughness is sorta endearing in its own way. But I don't think it'd be endearing to most people.

I noticed you talked about the load balancer being a person. Sounds like it'd be better if it was a bot. They just see which pool is currently the emptiest and put them there, right?

Although you seem to be suggesting live instance swapping. Which might be possible in the future. Right now appears to be tied to registration.

I'm not sure I'm following.

Wouldn't this load balancer be swapping the user's current instance user420@lemmy.world may suddenly become user420@lemm.ee?

Or more like multiple servers within the same umbrella instance? User420@lemmy.world, User420@lemmy.world1, User420@lemmy.world2, User420@lemmy.world3.

Apologies, while I think myself fairly tech savvy, development and networking is still a bit out of reach.

I think Lemmy's biggest challenges are server stability, increased complexity to use (most don't understand things like instances), and low awareness from others. I only learned about it a day or two ago. Signed up out of curiosity.

But if Lemmy gets even more popular then the various popular instances are going to be stressed. It looks unstable to newcomers who go back to Reddit.

I signed up for lemmy.world originally, constantly had gateway errors. Lemm.ee seems more stable due to lower traffic.

But others may not be able to recognize that. Even if they did, might not want to create new accounts for several instances and go back to starting from 0.

Always some going off in early July and late June.

I can only imagine what terror will be committed by the "God of Fuck," Jack.
