Not replacing. But trying to be honest. And I'm liking Lemmy with "Connect" app pretty much.

Can't believe Reddit can't pay to any of these Devs to revamp their shitty low performance app.

But anyway. I'm like the idea of the Lemmy instances etc.

They can they just deliberately chose to make it shitty.

Happens at the governments, happens at the companies.

I work in some IT projects with like 20-30 people and literally 3-4 of us would be enough. Same thing is probably happening at Reddit.

I can't imagine how many managers, Devs, offshore etc are involved in that shitty Reddit app that is 100 times worse than Infinity, Boost and many more Reddit 3rd party apps.

It's worse than that, usually at govs and companies it's just incompetence.

In Reddit's case they actively chose to make it shitty because some MBA told them it'll improve engagement of their users and make them more dollars when they IPO.
