I initially had a similar reaction, as ‘active users’ in the title makes it look like you are stating a fact. ‘Reported active users’ in the title would have given a suggestion that you are (rightly) questioning the number.
Edit: that icon disappears when switching to compact mode. Which I use because I don’t like the large images on some posts. It often leaves me with only two posts visible in my feed:
Two of the three said there was “a reluctance among junior staff to complain to managers about the conduct of high-profile colleagues in case it adversely affected their careers,”
Sounds like the Beeb have a problem with their internal culture and complaints procedure. In other words, things like this will happen again.
Not sure where you got that impression. I recently joined Lemmy after reddit exceeded my tolerance for suckiness and bullshit. I still use reddit occasionally (my 3rd party app still works) and i have only ever seen people posting suggestions to move to the fediverse, not posting that lemmy/mastodon are bad.
There is a lack of mature apps (memmy is the only ios one i think) but this will improve no doubt.
I think the main long term risk is around funding. Hosting a popular instance will quickly get more expensive as the userbase grows.
New version is working well. Don’t need to log in all the time anymore. Profile page looks better. Just wish there was an option to get the old icon back, i liked it.
Had some problems with the option to use default browser (firefox on ios), links are not opening).
Still on my wishlist: mark inbox items as read once i have read them. Dont like the extra click needed.
Edit: still getting a bonus extra upvote when creating a comment.
And increasing the power available to every house, lamp post and car park is a big problem. It requires more investment than most utility companies are willing/able to make
