I read somewhere on Lemmy that ich_iel deliberately uses wrong words four the lulz. So be careful or you’ll be learning bad grammar. Youse diggitty?

There are very few examples of Communism put into practice at a large scale.

Here you go. It was a custom implementation but i don’t know enough about iOS development to say how difficult it would be to implement.

Interesting read. I was genuinely surprised to read that ChromeOS has 4%+ desktop market share. It’s not popular at all where I am from. I’ve never ever seen one in person.

The apps are already amazing and will not suffer issues of scale themselves because they run on users’ devices. The scaling issues will be in Lemmy server code and ActivityPub in general.

ActivityPub doesn’t seem very scalable IMHO. It works well if all instances are about the same size and communities are well-distributed. Right now a few servers like lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, and lemmy.ml are much larger than others. They host most of the popular communities as well. This creates an imbalance which ActivityPub doesn’t handle well.

I think Lemmy instances should be topic based. But that’d be confusing for people coming from centralized social media who are only trying to find a reliable starting place. So I really hope we reach a point of maturity and mainstream-ness of Fediverse that people feel comfortable with smaller theme-based instances.

What do you mean “like brave”?

You’re on iOS. The OP is on Android.
