I don’t code so idk the deep dive but from what I’ve seen from the people who run my instance, there’s a lot of features missing and sometimes updates break things.
Last I checked, Piefed, despite being written in a scripting language, manages to be much faster and lighter.
I can’t comment too much on database best practices, but apparently the way Lemmy uses them is borderline insane. It does just visually look pretty speghetti-code-ish, in those sections. Hopefully, one day somebody will come along and fix that.
Haha welcome to the fediverse, glad you’re enjoying it.
Lemmy legitimately does just have an incrementally better design, besides just being free and non-enshittifiable.
(Except “under the hood”, where it’s a bit of a mess)
what’s wrong under the hood?

The rest seems fine.
