Compared to established, age-old platform? Yes, we're less developed. But do you know what's even worse? Corporate greed! Rest assured, we'll improve and mature over time.

Stephen Colbert flashed the reddit alien on the Colbert report in 2009 I think. Reddit was very usable with a lot of traffic even back then. Lemmy isn't going to get a shout out on a major mainstream show anytime soon is my guess. It's not a fair comparison, it'll take a long time for Lemmy to get to 2015 Reddit levels as far as polish and traffic goes.

I'm fine with that. I would take a 2011 reddit polish and traffic.
