Yes, they are one of the few people who make big decisions when it comes to the development of Lemmy, and if they do it with bias they can cause problems for the rest of us. Especially since Sublinks is basically dead, no new development happening there. Lemmy is all we have right now, so we’re stuck with it until something else with a Lemmy-compatible DB comes along.
Is it? I am reading your comment from MBin, and there’s also Piefed so there is a choice. They don’t have as many apps as Lemmy, but maybe if they’d have more users more apps would be keen to support them?
Worth noting this is a lemmy developer. (Most people don’t know “Nutomic”)
Thanks this is exactly the context I was missing
And here is the punctuation you were missing: ,.

PieFed? Mbin? There are viable alternatives that aren’t that far behind.

The dev just had a baby and posted recently about the 1.0 api target in [email protected], which was something they were waiting on.
Or forks it
Well there was only one and they seem to have dropped it to work on Sublinks, in the end both died.
