Today I checked the pmos sub and was quite surprised it was closed. And for what reason? API change is ancient history.
Clearly, the protest amounted to nothing and frankly once I figured out that reddit api change wasn’t about preventing foss apps, but about squeezing paid apps out of the market, I didn’t care about it at all.
What’s important for any project is the community, and reddit is simply the only place where such community can grow. So why not open it back up?
upd. it seems that this thread is the most actions this community had in months. Clearly demonstrates the superiority of lemmy, right?
That’s just on your instance, those stats haven’t been made to federate.
I see the same numbers when I look at https://lemmy.ml/c/postmarketOS and https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
Only the number of subscribers, posts and comments differ. Anyway, it’s still order of magnitude away from what was possible on reddit.
Huh, you’re totally right. I didn’t realize that had gotten implemented. Thanks for the correction!
