Why not both?

Yeah, I get this, but this is minor to me.
This is partly the responsibility of us Lemmy users to make sure it is known which instance to use. If we are letting the newbies go with a random instance, it’s probably not going to work out overall.
Honestly, I appreciate that they do not attempt to manipulate the lemmyverse in a way that pushes their agenda. Let them have a default. It’s fine.
People should come into Lemmy with the understanding that it is all about multiple instances and choosing the best one for you. I don’t like who Reddit is run by, but I can do nothing about it from within their ecosystem. Lemmy is built in a way that you can avoid supporting people you don’t want to.
Even if you don’t want to participate in the Lemmy, just steal the source code and rebrand it and use that as a starting point.
That’s basically what Truth Social did with Mastadon.
Honestly, this is what’s so great about Lemmy. If the Amins are the problem, there’s always another place to go.
True. Comments saying “build your own application” were more popular than comments suggesting Lemmy.
Even if you wanted to “build your own Reddit” you’d be better off starting with Lemmy source code anyway.
Also possible that Reddit buries the Lemmy posts. You can’t see the up/downvote counts. After all.
I think people just don’t want to make the move, and are making up excuses to stay where they are. I see a lot of that in that thread.
It also suffers from ridiculous moderation. Get into an argument with a mods alt and youll have all your comments from a whole instance removed and banned outright
This true? Hasn’t been my experience.
Seemed like quite a few comments bashing Lemmy or suggesting that there is no alternative.
Apple wouldn’t lie to me.
Yeah, that’s one half of both.
