I haven’t gone back since Apollo shut down, and not planning to, but I am curious.

    I’m all for improving the user experience here on Lemmy.

    But what I find not so appealing, is targeting mass adoption in a way that dumbs down the community we’re building here.

    As long as we just make Lemmy a great place to be, the right kind of people will keep joining.

    Meta knows exactly what to do to bring a billion new users to a new social media site, and all you have to do is look at Threads to see the kind of community they are cultivating.

    Lemmy does not, and never will, have the moderation power to contend with that many bad actors. I’m perfectly fine with Lemmy having a tiny learning curve to keep out the dregs.

      Isn’t it possible to also create a gatekept community on the fediverse by just filtering to “local” on an instance that has the same current state barriers to entry? That’d prevent you from seeing the posts on instances that have lower barriers to entry.
