    Wait and see what happens when the third party apps don’t work. Sure some will install the crappy official app being forced upon them but the cool kids will be looking for the next big thing.

      Here’s to hoping all the narcissistic types who lash out at anything that even slightly inconveniences them (cough Reddit protests cough) stay there.

      Social media sites go in cycles. I think we’re nearing if not the end then the regression of sites like Reddit, Twitter, and Facebook.

      I’m enjoying Lemmy, but I think perhaps it needs to do more to differentiate itself from Reddit by being better in some major way if users are going to move to it. Right now it’s essentially just decentralised Reddit, but if it develops in the right way, that could be enough. I think it depends on how easy it is to find and filter content, contribute and avoid seeing the things or people you don’t want to, as well as what kind of communities grow around major instances.
