How does having multiple lemmy servers spread the load?
  • It works a little differently to that. When someone posts on server B, that post and it's comments get blasted out to all subscribed servers. So server A will already have the post cached if someone is subscribed to that community. The cache in server A will update any time activity happens on server B.

    What's an industry that's known to treat its workers very well?
  • I’m treated well as a software engineer, I’m the envy of my friends of family. But I have friends who are treated like crap in software dev too. So I guess it goes both ways.

    Be honest, do you still use reddit?
  • I used to check reddit everyday, some days I'd spend hours browsing. I think I've checked it twice since Apollo went down?

    GitHub - pxp-lang/pxp: A superset of PHP with extended syntax and runtime capabilities.
  • Yeah it opens a whole new world of possibilities for what we could add to the DX of the language.

    AFAIK he's currently working on the language tools for IDE support, which will help a lot in adoption.

    I'm wondering what people's thoughts on this project are?

    I've had my eye on it for a while and it seems like it'll be to PHP what Typescript is to JS. Which is exiting if we can't get native support for some of these features.

    Changes you would love to see in PHP?
  • I'm keen for this community to gain some traction, hopefully it's a bit less toxic than our reddit counterpart.

    I would love to see Generics and custom Types in PHP. Generics for obvious reasons. And Types so we don't need to create a DTO just for type-hinting of objects. Combined with Generics, so we can have typed Arrays!
