Don’t worry teamsters we added 6 new ticket statuses so they can get auto-sorted straight to the abyss.

Proof that the meme was written by a dev

They will both surely drown.

Where’s the arrow pointing to the dead lady?

If they break up Microsoft will buy them and force them to create Master Chief Funko Pops.

Linking to media? Ew

Devs do get donations but instances are not able to host advertisements. This means that if any hobbyists hosts a popular server instance they have to pay out of pocket to keep it going.

I’m going to get crucified for this but without monetary incentive I don’t see improvements coming anytime soon. I respect the Lemmy creators but they’re running on donations and goodwill. Reddit/Digg had a team of dedicated employees working on the user experience because it was their livelihood.

Yeah I love Lemmy but I don’t see it taking off. The separation of federation instances is confusing for new users. There are plenty of communities but they all feel isolated due to the same community existing on multiple instances. There’s a reason why the biggest communities are all Linux/Programming related.

The AntiWork movement already peaked so I’m not sure what the Lemmy instance is trying to accomplish.
