They do get released. I need a source of high quality rips for the NAS to stream from.

Still no blu ray last time I checked.

Looks nice, thanks.

Genuinely happy to hear this.

So don’t run large instances. Either selfhost at home if you’re on symmetric fiber or use cheap ARM cloud instances.

Lemmy should be made less complex, not more. If anything, it could integrate an external microblogging service via its API.

That is indeed pretty old. At current lifetime cycles a lot of hardware is doomed by obsolescence well before it’s ready for the landfill.

There are some vendors like Fairphone and Framework that aim to support longer lived platforms. If it has a removable battery it’s a good sign. If it’s supported by a community rather than a corporation an even better one. Though with Android you’re limited by upstream support, where some Google hardware is more special than other.

Not sure what the other apps are supporting. So web interface might be the only option left in this case.

I run LineageOS sans gapps with F-Droid so use only open source applications. These can be built easily for older systems, assuming you can install F-Droid on your older hardware.

Redditlikes are a lot more than just link aggregators, and the complexity is all server-side. Clients for these are not hard, though good UX is not easy. Which is why I’m currently using the web front end until Jerboa becomes usable or Slide is ported to Lemmy.

Give it some time. App support for Lemmy is basically alpha while Lemmy is at beta stage. The good news is that progress has picked up with the latest exit wave.
