just so this doesn’t overwhelm our front page too much, i think now’s a good time to start consolidating discussions. existing threads will be kept up, but unless a big update comes let’s try to keep what’s happening in this thread instead of across 10.

developments to this point:

The Verge is on it as usual, also–here’s their latest coverage (h/t @dirtmayor@beehaw.org):

    I’m of no doubt that apps will eventually allow users to manually create multi-Lemmys.

    I just think we should kind of chill on trying to 1-for-1 replicate Reddit, or ask for all the features straight off. Reddit has been around for over a decade and the apps and ecosystem have matured a lot. Some of that takes time to happen, since internet communities drive sites so I’d rather give it a bit before making changes.

      I don’t think I want (or was asked for) a 1-to-1 replica of Reddit. Like I said, I get the pros of open source and federation. I’m just pointing out an immediately apparent pain point that I’d like to see be addressed at some point.
