It doesn't have recommendation engine that forces everybody into certain streams of thought, how terrible. You want someone to do the thinking for you? Can't think for yourself?
The admin has *audible gasp* power and users can choose the server they want? It's almost like they are free. Also twitter, facebook, insta and other sites have never banned anybody because they are bastions of free speech.
I know search boxes are advanced tech for you, but the majority it really isn't that hard.
"I want my content and I want it now!" OK, addict. Maybe going slow would be better for you. Relax.
Would you imagine that, people who donate their free time and skills to a project without getting reimbursed need longer to design and implement something than those working full time on it for tens of thousands of euros a year. And of course there are users like you that want the free work for free. As soon as somebody asks for money "Oh no, then I'll go to the VC funded alternative where I'm the product! At least it's free!"
Always the same with you people. You want a free alternative that can compete with a product that has millions invested in it over multiple years but won't accept anything less than perfection, otherwise it's "garbage" and "unusable".
I dunno why are you so hostile to the other person and their points. The truth is that most people, especially non-technical ones, want three things out of any social media platform and here they are in order:
If a platform doesn't meet all three of those criteria then it will not achieve mainstream success. Like it or not Mastadon, which I am on, is failing all three of those and will almost certainly remain a niche platform just like Lemmy.
Well put
