I think it would be a good idea to delay the release of sync for lemmy, for the long-term good of lemmy.

  • Lemmy is following the same maturity curve as any social media platform. The early days of Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, or any platform you can think of had major growth and development early on, and were fine.

    Delaying to avoid hypothetical misunderstanding will simply lead to missed opportunity to get users to the app, and delayed maturity of the app.

    Let people join, make their decision to leave/stay. As the platform grows, users will as well.

    • Can we just parse the whole Reddit and upload it to a separate Lemmy instance

  • Given the sheer amount of data on Reddit, this is really not feasible nor scalable, nor is a long term solution. A simple CloudFlare configuration will quickly put an end to such a solution.

    RSS exists, however only allows you to subscribe to subreddit posts, not comments.

    This is why the API changes are such a big deal.

  • That first one could also probably be spun into an nsync reference lol
