    But opensource projects are more likely to get dropped by devs than losing their userbase from what I’ve seen. I could be wrong. Both our points are true. That’s the best part of fediverse. If one doesn’t like lemmy, they are free to choose an alternative. I just don’t agree with demanding features from open source developers. There is a distinct line between demanding and requesting. I’m not saying lemmy is perfect. Maybe Sublinks would be better. Let’s wait. But even Sublinks won’t be sustainable if users do not respect developers time and patience.

      I think there is also a distinct line between demanding, for example, a new animated avatar feature and demanding a way to delete child porn.
