Fully remote is the only way. In my experience hybrid workplaces are just as toxic. It could turn into full time office out of the blue like mentioned here or generally the ones showing up to the office get a bit of a preferential treatment if the boss also regularly shows up at the office.
This is not an app problem but a server problem.
Here there are different servers that any individual can run, currently what’s happening is the lemmy.ml is being flooded with users causing it to have issues such as timeout.
Very inconvenient definitely but the only option you have is to switch to some other server, create an account, and use it. Or wait for lemmy.ml to scale up their servers.
I’m currently using lemmy.world which seems to be fine at the moment.
For a low low price of 250$ you can buy the deluxe ultimate season pass starter edition of the game which includes only banner ads instead of video
