Are we committed to Lemmy? or would we move if something better comes along?
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.
I'm hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don't love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren't out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.
As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.
I'm committed to ActivityPub. I don't really care if the specific server backend ends up being lemmy, kbin, or something new.
Why ActivityPub specifically?
For clarity, I'm not disagreeing, just trying to understand.
It’s a widely accepted standard for decentralised social media. It can be adapted to many use cases relatively easily. If someone makes a better link aggregator server based on ActivityPub, it would be much easier to bring all the lemmy data and users to it than if someone started from scratch. As in what happened going from Reddit to lemmy, as Reddit doesn’t have a standardised federation behavior.
Thanks for expanding on that!
