      It depends on who you ask. I came across a thread where some of the old people complained about the inflow of normies. They enjoyed an exclusive leftist community and now it’s being mainstreamed and centrist political positions are being ‘normalized’

    I was excited to see this had 1200 upvotes then it changed to 3 and now it’s just showing random numbers. I’m not even mad.

      Seems pretty similar to Reddit to me, besides the whole decentralised nature which is a plus anyway

      What are people complaining about?

        If you go to the areas where people are suggesting features, it’s almost 100% “please implement my personal favorite feature from my personalized Reddit experience.”

        Now, I’m going to say that wanting the features you found useful in your old social media is a perfectly reasonable desire, but it’s the Dev’s job to make sure all the feature and UI changes are self-consistent and not overload for the user. So, naturally a bunch of requests are going to have to be ignored, at least for the time being.

          I’ve never contributed to open source projects before, is it open to community contributions? (as in could I go pick up a feature request and make a pull request for it?)

            Yes! Many people are joining right now, you can too. Pick Lemmy itself or one of the apps! There is also Tafkars, they are trying to replicate the reddit api for Lemmy. The goal is to make 3rd party reddit apps compatible with lemmy.

    Now I do the same thing I’ve always done,

    Lurk and never contribute any content!

    I’ll try to change i swear
