    “Multi-reddits as they exist on Reddit itself could be implemented entirely client-side, the server side stuff just syncs the behavior of multiple client apps.” - gem of a quote.

    Is this the reason the core Lemmy developers avoid discussing Lemmy development on Lemmy itself? Are there people who hang out on Lemmy for the purpose of negating technical topics about enhancing the code? To be the first ones to reply and try to derail it?

    I’ve described it as “hazing” around here, but there seems to heavily cultivated that discussion on Lemmy is worthless and they all flee to Matrix chat to stay away from Lemmy regarding coding and PostgreSQL technical discussions. I mean, why would you keep join_collapse_limit a secret discussion, to avoid that keyword on Lemmy… seems like it should have been front and center. But maybe I’m not seeing just how much they avoid Lemmy and stay on Matrix for this reason…

    Multi-reddits as they exist on Reddit could be implemented with postal mail service and stamps, why is that relevant to what is actually does and to trivialize it away with absolutely no demonstration that you have looked at the code or ever even thought of the discussion before it came across your screen.
