I can’t speak much on modding. I was a mod of a sub that only lasted a day or two and was shutdown. So my experience was very limited

That new ugly UI.

It’s so damn cluttered.

Bad news, Reddit is a zombie.

Yeah, “community” is kinda bland.

And I feel it has the potential to make newbies confused with instance.

I feel like most of the problem would be physical hardware. Costly servers that would need to be able to meet Lemmy’s growing demands.

I’m not sure how much optimization from the software side can be done to reduce resource requirements. There’s certainly things that can be done to improve user experience though.

Potentially. Though Reddit claims that the vast majority (like 90+%) used the official app. Of course, if such was true then you’d expect they wouldn’t pull the rug out from under everyone.

I can believe a majority used the official up. Maybe even a supermajority. 80% maybe.

But throwing a fit over 1-10% of your user base and doubling down when that low percentage doesn’t agree? I dunno.

It’s a big enough number that made them want to kill the third-party apps but it’s small enough that they felt they could survive the backlash.

i’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

A lot of this sounds familiar.

I just wonder of this is actually going to have a similar effect. Controversial decision but I’m pretty used to seeing companies get away with shitty choices.
