Check here, these were the posts made !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com

They got 800,000 views between them

I made both those posts, I thought they were different enough to not breach rule 7

They were 7 days apart, and the 2nd post was the graph about the growth we've seen, not just a copy past post. But yea fair, I'll give it a month before posting again.

Not yet, but I've been seeing them more and more on reddit, and then I land on a instance I'm not logged into, and then it's a pain in the A$$ to interact with the post.

 

Not sure how complex this might be to implement, but it might be good to look into fixing the issue of:

If I'm logged into say piefed.social and I see a link on another forum to a post on piefed.ca, when I click on it I'm not logged in, and then I can't upvote or comment.

Meaning I need to go to piefed.social and search for that post if I want to interact with it, which is a lot of friction.

Perhaps if you go to a piefed.ca post it can look at your cookies to check if you're already logged into another piefed instance, and then redirect & open the post through the instance you're logged into.

Or have a big redirect button that offers to redirect you to the post you're looking at but in the instance you're logged into.

 

Feel free to help lost redditors

Jip it's literally like 5 reddit posts over the last week-ish

They've gotten ~700,000 views now

Thanks, it's quite fun to setup and run an instance and helping the community grow. Hopefully I can get a bunch of South African and Africans to join my instance.

But anyone is welcome.

Cool Cool, I thought you might already have a lot on your plate

[โ€“] biltong@piefed.co.za 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

No, I need to figure that out. You're welcome to be one.

PieFed.co.za is hosted in Germany

It's kinda geared towards South Africans, but it'll be a place where anyone is welcome. I still need to do some housekeeping though.
