I really don’t get why anyone would throw shade at another option being added in. The entire point of the fediverse is decentralization and choice. Having a fully compatible option for users and people wanting to run their own instance is a good thing. Kbin and mbin are an option, and now there’ll be a third.
Keeping all the eggs in one basket just isn’t a benefit, diversity of choice is. Even if they fuck up sublinks and it sucks, having it there is good. The argument that they should be working on lemmy instead just doesn’t hold water. If someone is dissatisfied with a project, they won’t be working on it at their best, if they even do keep working on it.
im just not uses to a project thats not even 50% complete, broadcasting it to the general public as if it matters yet.
from a project management pov there are so many risks still on the table, just why would you do that?
i get they want to bring in devs or whatnot ( though this seems absent from the posts), but this blanketing of publicity over a incomplete thing is weird to me. there are plenty of dev channels.
seems like hype-building, which im kinda adverse to

I think a common fault people have in general, and especially in open source circles, is to consider everything a zero sum game.
Obviously it’s not, and especially not in the Fediverse, but when did reality prevent anyone from being assholes on the internet?
