Same! I pay nearly double what I was paying for 100mbps but it’s worth it. As soon as the service was enabled in my building I signed up straight away. In the same place 3 years ago I was only getting 14mbps as my only option!

The year of Linux on the desktop is closer. Linux reaches 3% of desktops in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Yes and no. MacOS is basically the year of the Unix desktop for a while now and it’s still powerful and user friendly. Just fire up a terminal and it’s Unix. The benefit they have is hardware control so stuff just works and no driver hardware issues etc…

YSK: If you want faster and less buggy User experience, move to a smaller instance that is hosted close to you. in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Close to you? I’m running my own instance in France and I live in Australia. It works great. The problem is overloaded instances.

What does settings the instance to private do? in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

I'm not sure, I'm still seeing your original comment now? Maybe it's due to me replying via an admin account on my own instance of lemmy?

I mean more that it doesn't show the local posts as anyone can still view them when they are not logged in.

It would be great if it only just let logged in users view the site and not mess with the federation settings.

Admins, we're about to have a really bad SPAM problem when Lemmy removes captcha support in v.0.18 - You ALL have a responsibility to communicate back to lemmy devs to try to stop it. in c/technology@beehaw.org

I’m surprised some large instances aren’t using Cloudflare. It takes a few minutes to setup and the added benefit of caching alone is worth it. Let alone the bot/ddos protection.
