How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though?

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I have been using Memmy too. It has been excellent.
Just started lemmy and Memmy today. It’s been a great experience so far. The learning curve isn’t nearly as large as has been reported
A big part of that smooth experience is all the progress that’s been made in the past month, on both Lemmy and Memmy.
The Memmy app only started out as a beta in TestFlight ~4 weeks ago, and was limited to 10k users. The developer has made a truly inhuman amount of progress in that time - he was (and still is) pushing updates more than once a day. It’s only been in the regular App Store for a few days now.
Additionally, the largest Lemmy instance (lemmy.world) was having stability issues with the massive influx of users. But just a few days ago they figured out what was causing the problems, and the latest version of Lemmy has those fixes.
Wow, when you put it like that, it really highlights how much work got put into this because the experience, especially for a brand new app, is very reminiscent of Apollo. They’ve done a great job so far. Obviously not near where Apollo was, but that was over 9 years of development. Memmy looking great* so far
