Agreed, but OP's comparison probably wasn't representative of most people's gripes with Reddit (blocking of API access for moderation and interactivity bots).

Lemmy has an open API, doesn't universally block bot accounts or third-party tools, and has a bunch of different independent mobile clients -- so the implication that it's no better than Reddit on that front is bizarre.
