      I agree. While they might have the larger communities (for now), they seem to have also absorbed the worst kind of judgmental pricks from Reddit. I was just thinking to myself earlier that Lemmy needs a way to block instances at the user level.

        It’s a feature that’s already been requested that the Lemmy devs are looking at iirc

          Good to know. I’m sure there’s a metric shitton of QoL improvements like that in the pipe, along with multisubs, account (and community) migration, etc. I don’t envy the devs - lemmy wasn’t ready for this lol. I’m excited to see where it grows from here though!

            I’m honestly amazed by all of this, watching the birth of a platform unfold. I think I’ve been chronically online on Lemmy for the past few days xD Here’s hoping Lemmy will really take off.

            Edit: one other thing I really hope to see is ex-Reddit 3PA devs picking this up! I’m not sure how many devs will ever want to make that gamble again after being brutally fucked over by Reddit, but I can only hope someday.

              I know the dev of Reddit is Fun said they are NOT interested in making a similar app. Couldn’t speak to the others.
