Is this basically Ubuntu?

They do intentionally hold back packages based on a random value to do gradual rollouts. See below:

Could this be your issue?

If an instance is just being slow I’ll hop on to one of my other accounts, let alone down. My client makes that easy to do.

User-driven load balancing!

All refers to everything that your instance knows about. Your instance only retrieves data for which users are actually subscribed.

All can be weird on small instances if the user subscriptions don’t have a nice distribution.

This is a good point for not choosing too small. I’ve made a couple of accounts, and it looks like when a servers crosses that 1,000 or 2,000 user mark you start getting much better consistency than the micro instances with only a few hundred users.

I usually find that I have to reload a few times if I’m the first person to try to subscribe to a community. That happens uncomfortably too often if the instance is small. Even then, it can take a days or possibly never to properly federate.

I’m sure these issues will be fixed, but for now, I’d like myself a small instance but not too small so as to avoid issues with consistency.

Only 47%? You’d be a fool to invest.

It’s a pretty picture but oh do I hate spider webs.

I feel like a gigabyte of installation materials is probably a bit more than necessary.

Eczema, where your typical lotion just won’t cut it.

Who knew that removing functionality and limiting access to your product was the path to social media success.

I hate Pinterest links. I don’t even click if it looks like Pinterest. Might as well not exist.

There are moments where it’s like playing a really good game from growing up but for the first time all over again.

Shitpost is the lifeblood. For the glory of the meme.

“Did you move things?!”

Yup. My neighbor’s car is outside right now getting their daily parking ticket. They just pay them because they can afford it.

Nice shot. Did you take this picture? What did you use?

I’m tired for paying for insurance that doesn’t do anything.
