One of the best things about Federation is that communities can do exactly that. They can shut themselves off from whatever they like and have their own little website just to themselves. In this case it's dork-ass libs and they will not be missed.
There is also something to be said about slowing growth so it stays manageable.
And like, we aren't gonna federate with those sites.
honestly, I think lemmy is probably their best option for having a reddit like site without having to develop it themselves, Kbin is weird and tries too hard to integrate mastodon imo, although I don't know why they don't just turn federation off entirely at this point
php is one of the most widely deployed scripting languages for websites. It used to suck a lot and still kinda does. You can write good code in it but anyone who isn’t monolingual in php would be insane to do it.
Rust is a new, largely still developing language that has some let’s say unconventional priorities. It’s used less than php by a significant margin but people who like it like it a lot and want you to know that. It generally runs faster than php because it wasn’t made to commit the horrible sin of mixing html with imperative code.
:rat-salute: I'm now studying to be a city planner so I doubt I need to remember this but I will do my best if for some unfathomable reason I need to become a coder instead
Idk if that’s meant to be a gotcha but yes. JSX is trash and people who like it are the same dorks who would have been writing shitty Wordpress plugins 20 years ago.

kbin is written in PHP and Lemmy is written in rust. The decision makes itself
I've seen others say that, but I know almost nothing about coding languages so I didnt want to comment on it lol
PHP was launched in 1995 and Rust was launched in 2015, so,
goddamn!!!

I definitely know what this means :trump-anguish:
Don’t worry about it. Just trust me it’s bad and if you do it I will hate you.

Stay the course, friend. These waters aren’t safe.
Like react?

I was asking that honestly because that's the closest thing I know of like that. Also, JSX is based, and something like it is already in the Rust ecosystem .
Abandon your heathen ways and embrace the light of single file components or I will perform an exorcism.

No garbage collector bb :yeet:
I guess they didn't realize you could just whitelist instances instead of having some super cumbersome blacklist.
