I wonder why he went over that over Lemmy.

    Talklittle themself has said that it's actually because they were already working on a tildes app before the reddit API changed. Tildes was different enough from reddit that they felt comfortable investing the time. Then 3rd party apps got booted and everyone started moving over, and at that point it was easier to keep working on the same tildes app than to start anything new.

    Yeah but I mean he should at least researched how good or active Tildes was?

    Or is it more active than Lemmy?

    I don't know how to create apps, but IMHO that seems to involve a lot of time and research, even if you have a full baked one for other service, so I wouldn't rush launching it into a "x" (no Elon shit) alternative?

    Well I bet he has his reasons.

    EDIT: Nevermind I got a repose with the context about his reasonings:
