Watching Beehaw, established more than a year before June 4, 2023 - crash all June - I really regret I took the wrong approach, a crisis of faith it seems :(

June 4, 2023 is when I felt I had to get involved. And June 8, 2023 is when I crated my own testing-focused experimental Lemmy install that compiled Main from GitHub source and ready to test the changes I thought were surely going to come to the SQL because of GitHub issue 2910. I wanted to test the code that that developers who had been working and running lemmy.ml for over 4 full years - would surely address. It was June 4 with Issue 2910, the June 30 Reddit API cutoff deadline countdown was well under way. Lemmy.ml put in major hardware upgrades on June 13, 2023 - and I was puzzled why such an easy 2 or 3 hour fix for Issue 2910 wasn't put in... but I still had hope that everyone would see the pending countdown to June 30 API deadline and a fix could go in within 10 days - by June 23... for some slack time before June 30..

Watching Beehaw, up and running for 17 months on Lemmy - crashing constantly... I thought, surely the developers were seeing Issue 2910 happening over there... but June 28 came, June 29 came, June 30... nothing. With 4 years of experience on the Rust code base and such, they were the ones to fix Issue 2910.... but from June 4 to June 30, it just didn't happen.
