Why should we, the developers, invest money into refining software when we can just get you, the users, to invest in more hardware?

Dead platform full of bots clings desperately to life by selling out the attention spans of the remaining few users too oblivious to notice the pot boiling.
Where do they state that they're storing it encrypted at rest (in a way that they don't have access to)? I've found very little technical detail on the service.
Who has access to my emails at rest in Thundermail?
I mean, it seems like you found it, but if Lemmy isn't your speed, perhaps set up an RSS reader like Feeder and get your doom piped straight in from the source.
ETA: I've got Feeder set up with ~50 sources ranging from general news to science, tech, environment, and FOSS news, and blogs from organizations I support. I've got several hours worth of scrolling (more if I stop to digest more articles) loaded in fresh every day. Thousands of articles in the backlog... I'll get caught up...
The article does a good job breaking it down, but a short example is if you want to post about technology, you have to choose one of those communities to post to.
You can cross post or repost in the other communities but then any discussion gets fragmented, people see the same thing multiple times in their feed, only engage with one, and likely not the same one as somebody else.
On the other hand only posting in one community could significantly reduce engagement if you choose poorly.
Wait, so am I reading correctly from the wiki page the only app that supports merging crosspost comments is Interstellar, which also doesn't support crossposting?
Proposed solution 3: Communities following communities
The ability for communities to "subscribe" to other communities is an idea that comes from this Github comment. This is, in my opinion, the best proposed solution by far. Community a can follow community b, making posts from b also appear on a.
What this means is that community moderators can choose to have posts from other communities to show up on theirs. That means if all the pancake communities are following each other, I can post on pancake@a.com and it would show up on the other pancake communities as well, and the comments would simply be grouped into just one post!
The main proposed solution doesn't force merging on anyone. Mods can decide whether or not they want content from other communities to show up in their space. No two news instances have to merge if they serve different audiences.
It isn't explicitly called out in the proposal but I could easily see there being an option for mods to unlink individual posts from other communities if they get too spicy.
Forgive me being pedantic about this, but who holds the keys? Gmail stores your emails encrypted at rest as well.
