I do have quite a laundry list of remarks for Lemmy too. The bugginess and lack of features is understandable. But it is quite centralized and I see a future where it will be more centralized the more users will join due to a bit of a fundemental flaw of federation.
Maybe these problems will be fixable. I hope so, because I think it is a really cool concept. But I am not sure if I agree with the execution of it. I would love to contribute to this project if these problems are fixable.
Well, looking at all the comments in this post, not everyone agrees with that. i do think the Apollo dev is a king in how he has handled everything though
You don't have to care, nor do I care
There are a multitude of reasons for making the API paid or rate limited, I don't think the CEO went with the right approach. But it was due time at some point
Of course you can complain about reddit. It just makes you look like a tantrum throwing toddler, especially when you complain about the reddit users that do choose to stay. How dare they make different choices than you
Ask the CEO, not me 😂 I'd have approached it differenly
I agree with both yeah. Personally I would have made different choices than the CEO has.
Have a more realistic planning for developers to adapt. Offer different types of api pricing models.
It all could have been handled more strategically, which makes him a poor CEO in my opinion
Kind of thinking the same thing, I want to learn rust, but have not gotten an excuse to start using it. Maybe dedicating 8-16 hours per 2 weeks could help me learn rust and do something more complex than writing hello world. I have some additional time in a month or so, so might as well try
I was thinking about learning rust and contribute to open source projects, so it might be a good option. I do have a laundry list of notes about the platform itself though
I picked my regional one (technically also better for latency)
I don't agree with it. There are many capital cities that are in terrible locations for highspeed rail and are would be a diservice to the rest of the country.
Cities like Amsterdam, Berlin, and Viena are just the worst places to reach for most of their respective countries. Say you live in Munich and you want to travel to Amsterdam, you are still stuck on the slow train if you focus on a Berlin-Amsterdam route.
If high speed rail is supposed to be successful it should be about covering geographical distance fast. Or the car and planes are still going to be the prefered option.
