How come I can natively log into my Lemmy apps on iPhone / iOS, but with every single Mastodon app, it opens a Safari window to try log in?

(Reason: I blocked the browser, and just want to use the apps I specifically chose as daily drivers, still testing out Lemmy + Mastodon apps.)

How would you handle Reddit admins (paid employees of Reddit) visiting and playing along with Lemmy and the Fediverse?

I want a statement on the apparent lemmygrad connections and supporting human rights violations. The recent blog post was a PR non-answer, free speech is important, but human rights violations are just not acceptable.

Edit: it's obvious at this point there will never be a proper statement. I just want to say that regardless of the country of origin, US, China, EU, South Africa, India, it doesn't matter to me, all human rights violations are violations and unacceptable. This isn't a communism vs capitalism debate, this is a situation of whether to support the guy creating this software if that individual supports genocidal tendencies.

What role do you think Lemmy developers should have in limiting the way that private instances can be used?

For example, (IIRC) you can't say the n word on any unmodified Lemmy instance—even one that you host yourself. I wonder what other such limitations are currently in place or may be added in the future. Can any open source contributor add such a limitation?

Edit: Regardless of whether you think such limitations are appropriate, I think it's an important question. I also expressed this comment in a neutral manner.
