Agreed, though these aren't mutually exclusive. Lemmy as it stands is objectively a better platform in terms of mobile user experience now that third party apps were gutted for Reddit. So switching, at least for itself, is a protest using this platform while Reddit either dies a slow, painful death or takes strides to unshittify their stuff. Will probably end up using both if Reddit gets it together but that's unlikely.
Whatcha mean by locked camera? Not disagreeing, just not sure what you're referring to.
