It's not surprising as the motivations are quite different. Reddit wants their app to be a shitty Facebook clone while Memmy/Lemmy focus on the user experience.
Also memmy devs aren’t bogged down by the 10 layers of corporate bullshit your average dev has to deal with.
Source: am part of corporate bullshit.
Also, Memmy had a great template from Apollo.
The motivation is $$$. Reddit's board and CEO want to get rich. Lemmy wants to nerd out and create a community.
Let's also acknowledge that nobody should work for free so if you truly support Memmy/Lemmy, put your money when your mouth is.
Absolutely. This is the time to put your support towards app developers, instance providers, and the Lemmy project itself.
