What are you talking about? The issue to bring back captchas was only opened 4 days ago!
Captchas were only removed 2 weeks ago, no one spoke up then: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2922
The developers have nothing against captchas. They were the ones who originally built and added the feature: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/1027
I think there have been some API changes so you need both the new backend and the new frontend.
My bad, I have Bypass Paywalls Clean so I didn’t even notice the paywall!
IDK about that, there are many claims from users of it being available on stable. I believe it’s another one of those A-B test things so it’s only available for a subset of stable users.
It’s unbelievable what Microsoft can get away with in Edge…

A significant number of subreddits shifting to private caused some expected stability issues, and we’ve been working on resolving the anticipated issue.
How in the world does setting a bunch of subs to private crash the website?
Doesn’t Reddit have multireddits? Lemmy can implement the same feature.
OP mentioned this.
I think they can horizontally scale the Postgres maybe? Postgres is probably the biggest performance bottleneck.
I don’t think this is a problem. It’s the same on reddit where you can have multiple gaming subreddits or multiple news subreddits. Eventually the communities will consolidate.
I see the potential but Lemmy in its current state is very buggy. There needs to be a huge uptick in dev activity to iron out all the bugs and usability issues before June 30th hits. Otherwise, I see little hope of adoption.
The performance issues also need to fixed ASAP. Sure, you could just “use a different instance” but you can’t even federate with overloaded instances!
EDIT: Looks like there are a lot of fixes coming in this PR: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1081
