Ha! I was confused for a moment until I realized the same thing.

I actually feel more relieved. It has become toxic and dominated by bots. As soon as a real person posts anything, it's immediately down voted
I'm enjoying Lemmy much more. Reminds me of the internet of old.
Thank you...great background I wasnt aware of.
I understand the multiple instances, but 100% agree name collisions across instances will be the biggest source of confusion. Will be curious how Lemmy tech stack and communities in general work to make this easy-ish for users.
Interesting....they probably have financial models showing how much more they'll make and assume very few folks will actually quit using Reddit. Time will tell, but know I am already enjoying Lemmy more than Reddit at this point.
Probably an unpopular opinion....but I do get Reddit's perspective that these apps are profiting without sharing back to Reddit who bears the costs and built the community. I wonder what conversations were had to find an equitable point for both sides and what that looked like.
+1. And perhaps I'm wrong -- bc terrible people do exist -- but we shouldn't let the extreme hyperbole dominate the conversation...politicians use that to divide us and the media uses it for sensationalism.
If someone wants to spew hatred, then they don't get to be part of that conversation.
How much were these apps making in revenue? Curious how bad the gap is with the API pricing.
For sure...and the rhetoric of politicians further that divide with extreme hyperbole. There are a small set people who agree with that...but throughout my domestic (USA) and international travels, they seem to be the fringe. We can't let the loudest people on the extremes dominate the conversation.
I use Hermit to create an "app".....that's just the mobile version.
Exactly! My wife and I also have different views on many (not all) politics. We've come to better understand each other's viewpoints and I think made us better as individuals and as a couple.
When Nginx (and I pushed it hard on others to use) to NPM to Traefik to Caddy. Caddy is just simple, easy setup for Certs, and integrates easily with Authelia.
