Right now this site needs a little bit more speed. Loading times are through the roof since the big fallout.

Never seen this amount of traffic. Give the mods a bit they'll get it worked out.

Previous mods from the original Reddit. Shadowman and others (all based mods who ran T_D for years) started this website a few months ago, knowing that Reddit was close to taking over T_D for good.

Yeah, but who’s in charge?

Feels good to say that doesn't it? Like a breath of fresh air?

I'd buy you gold for your comment, but I'll donate to the big man himself if that's cool.

Hey mods/admins! How about instead of gold we have some way to buy golden GEOTUS bucks, directly to his campaign?

I'm sure they are working on it. Greatness needs a bit of time.

If they need a buck or two from people to make this faster I have a feeling they could just say the word and people's pockets would open.

Ya I'm not sure what "give it some time" would mean. It's not like they're looking for the "Go Fast" switch in a closet somewhere. They probably need funding to buy some new tube amplifiers

It would be great to see how many people are on and the total number joined.

This. I want to see our un-spezed numbers.

Mass exodus, but this is a better site.

need better responsiveness, and we need the ability to preview posts with the + and when you click a post, it brings up a modal you can dismiss. Reddit got this part of the UX right. Emulate it. This site is painful to navigate.

Mods, if you need help on the frontend, I can't promise I have a lot of time, but I'm willing to help, and have decades of experience building big software systems.

Almost unusable on mobile for me. Pixel 3 XL on Chome.

Hate complaining. Admins/Mods are God's.

Me too, Brave is the best! It is a bit slow but I'm very impressed and grateful for this site and the workour mods do!!! It will get better as time goes on!

Pixel 3A here, everything loads just fine on brave browser. UX is fine too, expand/collapse works as intended. Maybe change your mobile browser?

I can live with it. Thanks tho ?

edit: on second thought, fuck Google. I'll try Brave.

Did you sign a 20 page non disclosure and IP assignment agreement when you started at your employer? If I were the mods I’d be worried about a big tech co finding out an employee contributed to engineering or coding on this site because the bastards might sue and claim ownership.

Cool idea, but AWS severs to run ML models would be expensive.

Maybe try and message the admins!

How about beginning work on a true free speech integrated platform? We need a new free speech Twitter, Reddit and app repository that is not controlled by Silicon Valley.

Try this.

Go into Your settings (gear in upper right)

Turn ON Auto expand embeds

I just happened to come across it while checking things out. So much smoother.

Now, if I can find where Saved posts are.....

Servers are flexing because of the 100k+ new users. YUGE increase in traffic slows things down. It'll get worked out.

Wish we had a donate button. I never gave a cent to reddit, but I'd donate to help this site. I know they're also working to expand the website to more subs. I'd love to see trade subs like for electrical, pipe fitters, plumbers, carpenters, sheetmetal, etc...

Maybe one for cigars also! Lol

IncredibleMrE1 33 points ago +34 / -1

If mods set up a donate button, I'll smash it faster than Nancy can down a bottle of vodka.

MAGA_APN 17 points ago +19 / -2

I am willing to put up with the slow speed because at least we have a place to share our views -thanks to those that took the time to set up this alternative site

13
chuckachookah 13 points ago +13 / -0

And the speed will improve.

There is the migration directly from that old shithole.

And, if you notice, there are new users migrating here from stories about the fascism that those cucks have done.

People don’t like bullying and that’s exactly what this was and is.

Lots of pedes visiting and migrating from Reddit.

Are you guys getting the Cloudflare thing each time you try to reload? It's killing my experience but I'm not going anywhere, just wanted to point that out.

I get some weird message everytime I click the back button to continue where I let off. Then have to start over at the top again

Not any longer was more extreme yesterday, couldn't even go back and forth.
