We all know about how Reddit closed-sourced back in 2017 and will be killing off third-party apps this July, what will Lemmy.ml do to avoid facing the same fate? Reddit started off like this (open, aiming for freedom) and it all went downhill from there.
Mastodon avoids this issue by allowing migration of user accounts from instance to instance, is this / can this be implemented into Lemmy?
Can definitely be done. Just need someone to do it. I need to read more of the documentation and figure out how all this works before contributing, I don’t want to waste the dev’s time coaching a newbie. That’s the last thing they need right now.
I’m under the impression that getting the code running as effectively as possible for the 12th is the current aim But that’s just from what I’ve seen on Lemmy
