    Fediverse will still take years to get up, but this was a massive boost forward for it, the momentum has shifted.

      I feel with reddit there’s a bigger chance for it happening than for Twitter since the network effect is smaller

      A shame that mastodon seems to be soo much more “ripe” with more aps and better infrastructure than lemmy - if there where 3-4 apps to choose from already instead of just the one chances would be pretty good for lemmy establishing itself for real

      Right now it just is a “too rough” experience for most people

        The web UI is at least pretty good and is a proper PWA.

        I’m hoping that the big third party apps will be looking into adapting their apps to Lemmy’s API. Since the concept of Reddit and Lemmy is similar, and someone’s already made a proof-of-concept API proxy, I think there’s a good chance at least one of them will migrate soon.

      For sure dude I honestly have been in IT and networking for 20yrs and never heard or knew about any of this. I think it’s great!
