Should I create a psychology community, or take over moderation of psy? - Mander

I was tempted to create a psychology community but noticed the psy community has no moderator. Any admins have a preference?

I just wanted to make sure you were aware - there seem to be long load times especially when loading the community pages (posts load fairly quickly).

Performance Issues August 2025 - Mander

Greetings fellow Manderites, Has anyone else noticed a degradation in performance over the last few days? I checked https://lemmy-status.org/ [https://lemmy-status.org/] a bunch of times and it seems the instance is mostly up and healthy… Issues I had: - All feed types loading very slowly or timing out; - A number of hours yesterday where Jerboa gave a message that my account was being verified and my profle not loading; - Receiving API errors posting comments but then the comment being posted. Apologies I didn’t screen shot anything. Alt account on another, larger instance seemed fine. P.S. Is this the correct community to post about this? Apologies in advance if not.

Can we get a lichen/lichenology community?

Can we get a lichen/lichenology community? - Mander

I have tried to find one all over lemmy and have had no luck aside from the odd mycology community. While lichenology does fit within the borders of mycology I think it’s a subject that warrants and is deserving of its own community. I have left reddit now and the sub I miss most is r/lichens, its a small but dedicated community and I think we could have that here. I’d love to see more people learn about lichens.

Lemmy needs more donations

Lemmy needs more donations - Mander

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/29579005 [https://lemmy.ml/post/29579005] > An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and I work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Unfortunately the amount of donations has decreased to only 2000€ per month. This leaves only 1000€ per developer, which is not enough to pay my bills. With the current level of donations I will be forced to find another job, and drastically reduce my contributions to Lemmy. To avoid this outcome and keep Lemmy growing, I ask you to please make a recurring donation: > > Liberapay [https://liberapay.com/Lemmy] | Ko-fi [https://ko-fi.com/lemmynet] | Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/dessalines] | OpenCollective [https://opencollective.com/lemmy] | Crypto [https://join-lemmy.org/crypto] > > If you want more information before donating, consider the comparison with Reddit. It began as startup funded by rich investors. The site is managed by corporate executives who over time have become more and more disconnected from normal users. Their main goal is to make investors happy and to make a profit. This leads to user-hostile decisions like firing the employee responsible for AMAs, blocking third-party apps and more. As Reddit is a single website under a single authority, it means all users need to follow the same rules, including ridiculous ones like censoring the name “Luigi”. > > Lemmy represents a new type of social media which is the complete opposite of Reddit. It is split across many different websites, each with its own rules, and managed by normal people who actually care about the users. There is no company and no profit motive. Much of the work is carried out by volunteer admins, mods and posters, who contribute out of enthusiasm and not for money. For users this is great as there is no advertising nor tracking, and no chance of takeover by a billionaire. Additionally there are no builtin political or ideological restrictions. You can use the software for any purpose you like, add your own restrictions or scrutinize its inner workings. Lemmy truly belongs to everyone. > > Dessalines and I work fulltime on Lemmy to keep up with all the feature requests, bug reports and development work. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. Previously I sometimes had to rely on my personal savings to keep developing Lemmy for you, but that can’t go on forever. We partly rely on NLnet for funding, but they only pay for development of new features, and not for mandatory maintenance work. The only available option are user donations. To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached Dessalines and I can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. Please use the link below to see current donation stats and make your contribution! We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be. > > > Donate [https://join-lemmy.org/donate]
