Or can we get by with less till the alternatives can get better. It's not really that simple. I don't need to convince my entire friend group to switch to Lemmy in order to get some use out of it. Best I can do is convince people to use modded discord clients like vencord and aliucord for most nitro features instead of paying for it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 3 points 10 months ago I agree, but there has to be a certain bar of usability for it to be a viable replacement, since you need to convince other people to use it as well.
