Despite the Doug hate, with this being done in conjunction with other provinces it will result in billions of dollars in lost trade with the states which is what we should be excited for.

More housing is more housing.

Yeah, I'm curious at the scaling problems. 1000 active users isn't that many. Especially if this is touted as being the next reddit. There are many subreddits with orders of magnitude more active users.

Maybe I'm crazy however if this is the instance run by developers. Is $30-100/month really impossible to handle? I figured this would be their more exciting time.

The software is distinct from the opinions of the developer in my opinion... I mean I'm not a communist however I enjoyed playing Tetris...

I've long wondered if I should have a generator in the garage.. I guess I'll find out soon enough.

So reading this correctly, it's currently a hosting bill of 30 Euro a month?

I want Lemmy in general to take off more now than ever, but I imagine in 30 days will be the real reckoning. Not everyone subscribes to /r/redditdev and /r/modnews. When they cut off Apollo and RIF everyone will be looking for a new location.

I've had the same questions, so I'd love to know too! :D

Well not going to lie, a RSS Feed for some subs to feed them would make sense. Post the top 3-5 news stories into /c/Canada /c/Ontario etc.

Another silly question. Is there a reason lemmy.ca isn't listed on https://join-lemmy.org/instances?

Cool, I figured it would need more resources. But I suppose scaling is tomorrows problem. :D
