On the Lemmy specific front, Active daily users seems to still be stabilising following the exodus from elsewhere, Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise though – promising stats all in all.

    Thanks, so it seems like those apps that were going to be charged for the API have a place to transition to. Nice!

      Yeah, it’s actually a really positive outcome because people really liked the app so they are willing to try something new.

      Exactly. The other end of it is that a lot of the app-specific advanced functionality made the transition for Day 1 - unless Infinity/else has some tricks i’m unaware of, its currently the most customizable/feature complete app - actual tablet modes, foldable support, biometrics for subaccounts, user painting/tagging for sub accounts, profile backups so you can carry customizations to other android devices - etc.

      Its all auxiliary & definitely not required, but losing these features made Lemmy a no-go on mobile for me. It’s also missing some real basic stuff like mod tools & the ability to make posts at all, but i’ve used the app for a decade & the dev is quickly pushing fixes/new features out the door.
