    Theoretically yes, in practice a project gains reputation and it’s managers gain skills and experience, so i fork isn’t always migrated to easily and it might be harder to keep it going, look at reddit , having the source code didn’t really help and despite lemmy being in development for years the reddit ecosystem (RES in particular) still has advantages that are important at least to me.

      Really? Lemmy seems wayy better than reddit. Maybe you just have a shitty instance?

        No i am using lemmy.ml, there are still a few things that are better for power users, for example there is no support for multireddits despite it being the issue with the most “thumbs up” on the lemmy bug tracker, RES ability to not show comments that are “read” really helps with deep diving on a certain topic.
