yes, i posted that screenshot publicly only after changing the password
Infinite scrolling is optional and also a feature the majority of users (not hyper specific tech nerds) want. If we are to have any hope of bringing the average social media user onto these platforms, we have to design it for them. Most of the addictiveness comes from the algorithm (lemmy lacks a personalized one), not necessarily the infinite scrolling itself


the extremely concerning thing is that I changed the password after leaking that screenshot. I have no idea how OP logged into it, it signals to me a Lemmy bug of some sort
Don’t link p.lemmy.world. it’s well over a year out of date.
phtn.app probably looks a bit less suspicious, and also lets you use any Lemmy/Piefed instance.
You could say it as “phtn.app is a web portal for the fediverse” or something like that because the concept of web apps is confusing to many


if anything people are probably gonna jump to some platform like https://skylight.social/ (not endorsement it actually looks pretty awful in its current state). ATProto platforms tend to get astronomically higher user counts even if in practice ending up rather centralized. if i tell an ex-twitter user to check out Mastodon and just Federate an ActivityPub Instance Decentralize Free Open Source Interconnected they’re gonna zone out. versus telling them to join bluesky @ bsky.app. to everyone who mentions Loops, do you actually use it? there are a TOTAL of ~700 posts on the main instance currently, and half of them are posts about “we should post more”.
@grok is this true
