Half was a ridiculous over exaggeration, but I see so much /r/crazyfuckingvideos and /r/fightporn, /r/imthemaincharacter is another awful subreddit.

Recently people were getting whipped up about that YouTube prankster who got shot, it was posted a ridiculous number of times.

I’d say it’s roughly my experience with Lemmy as well tbh.

There are some good discussions to be had here, but I don’t think they’re necessarily wrong about the issues, just a bit overblown.

I think Reddit’s far worse in general though. I think it’s gotten particularly worse over the past few years, it’s almost Facebook levels of people looking at stuff just to make themselves angry.

Half of the /all feed is about obnoxious people and fights these days.

I really don’t think they owe people a Lemmy App. Hell, this platform might even be dead in a couple of months.

Lots of people are making Lemmy apps, so there’s no real need for them to make one as well. The entire platform is a work in progress and there are a number of apps available, so just be patient and eventually they’ll be refined and ready.
