Hi. As you may know, I’ve opened the instance about 12 days ago. Right now, the instance is ranked 6th out of hundreds of instances.
We’re now using 4 vCPU and 16GB RAM server for 38€ which is very cheap (Not that cheap anymore. We’re using dedicated 16 CPU, 48GB RAM server for 160€). But we need donations to continue uploading media or even to increase the limit and move to a better server against instant load. Also we transfered 5TB of media only in 12 days 🤷♂️ Thanks to Cloudflare, this didn’t cause much trouble to us.
If you want to donate, here’s donation platforms we use:
- GitHub Sponsors: https://github.com/sponsors/xaegreal
- Ethereum (ETH): 0x4e4af5dc2f86235ac496542c2a1c00f3c4de40c6

- Ripple (XRP): rJRiM1spu2s1vQUWLWuBAKdCXejRS4wjvi

Didn’t know GitHub sponsors was a thing.
Neat.
(Also: new sponsor).
If I can make one request (not that I feel you should be in any way honored to follow it up or prioritize it):
The local blur policy/implementation is horrible.
I want to just scroll through content. Everytime I log in I must update the settings.
http://wefwef.app doesn’t even give me an option to adjust it.
We had local settings to auto expand, disable blur etc. but these settings has gone with the new update. I’m adding right now.
I’m not related to Wefwef or other apps, but you can try others like Mlem or Memmy.
Fully aware it’s unaffiliated, just that local settings was bad concept.
Yep. It’s a cheap patch more than a feature. We have to modify lemmy, lemmy-ui, lemmy-js-client to achieve this feature to be able synchronise to server. @trusted_pizza@lemmynsfw.com made a pull request for this, but its still blocked.
Liftoff! app (beta) is my favorite for one-handed scrolling, if you gnome say’n. Double tap to zoom full screen, double tap twice to zoom to full resolution.
