In a normal, nonfederated site, sure. But when you throw instances on top of it, it gets a bit more complex.

On another note, I don't believe we're gonna get a lot of people coming here who aren't redditors.

Ya need some miralax.

I can't speak much on modding. I was a mod of a sub that only lasted a day or two and was shutdown. So my experience was very limited

I feel like most of the problem would be physical hardware. Costly servers that would need to be able to meet Lemmy's growing demands.

I'm not sure how much optimization from the software side can be done to reduce resource requirements. There's certainly things that can be done to improve user experience though.

Potentially. Though Reddit claims that the vast majority (like 90+%) used the official app. Of course, if such was true then you'd expect they wouldn't pull the rug out from under everyone.

I can believe a majority used the official up. Maybe even a supermajority. 80% maybe.

But throwing a fit over 1-10% of your user base and doubling down when that low percentage doesn't agree? I dunno.

It's a big enough number that made them want to kill the third-party apps but it's small enough that they felt they could survive the backlash.

Could yes.

But only if they're able to survive and thrive. Money is a very tricky thing.

As for my example, I was talking more about something like Red Cross (random example) wanting their own Lemmy insurance. Why they would want that. I was really just jesting about the shit posting

Haven't saw any human beans. Yet, at least.

Not very.

It mostly just displays the frontpage and the threads there. Can log in but can't really interact beyond voting.

It currently crashes upon going into a... "Sublemmy?" I don't know what we're calling it here.

Work in progress. Still looks like home.

Chili does sound like it'd be better with rice though.

Hopefully, World gets its stability worked out.

Imagine it requires better hosting, which can be costly.
