I know that Lemmy is open source and it can only get better from here on out, but I do wonder if any experts can weigh in whether the foundation is well written? Or are we building on top of 4 years worth of tech debt?

“It depends” is a reference to an inside joke between developers. I agree with you that it could be really great, whether or not a code base is “good” or “bad” is just a complicated and highly subjective question to answer
thanks - yes, I suspected it was. Lemmy is what it is - and agree the question is difficult to answer concisely. Understanding that interpretation of “good” vs “bad” codebases is subjective, there are plenty of production systems that are unambiguously “not good”. The great thing about lemmy isn’t the UI, it’s the threading and reddit-like communities built on the ActivityPub foundation. It’s the right foundation.
