It was always going to happen but an instance being the defacto default for Lemmy is a bad thing.

There really needs to be a tool to help people pick an instance, but even then people would just flock to the general instances like .world anyway

Daily users have almost halved in the last month. Guessing a purge of bots or something

It’s not just articles though. A lot of commentary happens on twitter that never makes it to a long form article

I’d love to use mastadon but I use twitter for sport/politics journalists and none of them are on mastadon.

There’s https://lemmyverse.net/communities which will show you all the communities that exist. You can filter by instance as well.

It’s a separate site though.

They’ve just killed off third-party apps no way they’d do this as it just completely undos what they’re trying to achieve + allows users with accounts they don’t even own

Why allow people access through a browser when you can track them a lot more easily if they download your app

A Fediverse browser that allows you to connect to a range of fediverse platforms would probably be the only thing to get me fully invested in it tbh. I’m quite enjoying lemmy but I’ve not really had much interest in the other platforms other than mastodon but twitter has all the people I follow so hard to move off of it
