Inflation is awful. Gas as gone up 18%. Food about 20%. But $8 to $26 is a percentage increase of 225%.

I don’t find your example valid, sorry.

It did not cost me $26 CDN. Maybe $8.

No, I meant the instance itself. The server. The one who runs lemmy.ca is here in Canada with me.

It’s like when playing a game; You choose servers closet to you for the lowest ping time.

The other reason I neglected to mention was I like to support local. 😎

Agreed. I went with lemmy.ca since I’m Canadian and the instance is in my country.

I also heard Lemmy should perform a little quicker for me too this way.

I’ve had a Galaxy Note 10+ for 3 years and I’ve now had an S23 Ultra since around February. Not once have I had random apps installed.

I’m with Rogers Wireless in Canada.

I had to zoom in on my phone just to be able to read that!

You know… It’s seeing this type of stuff I’m so happy I found my wife the old fashioned way before dating apps existed.

Instance based isn’t something I knew would apply. I have an avatar setup which shows up desktop. But not here. If you have one, I don’t see it either. Weird.

I’m using Connect for Lemmy right now. I got the newest update from yesterday. I don’t see anyones profile pics…

From how I’m reading that Reddit post, the OP is speaking strictly of lemmy.ml, not Lemmy as a whole and the developers.

Be it true or not about lemmy.ml - I have no opinion as I haven’t looked into that.

Wow. This app is really nice at first glance. I like the gesture to swipe left on a comment to upvote. Reminds me of Sync for Reddit!
