Unfortunately, the ghost bikes in my area usually partially block the sidewalk and/or impede maintenance of the infrastructure that is there, making it less safe for everyone. Wish they would stop or find another way.
They do different things. Microblog/follow people vs discussion forum/follow topics. Just because they share a protocol doesn’t mean it’s compatible at a practical or desirable level. I wouldn’t want microblogging coming to Lemmy personally.
This could bring a lot of new users based on the name of the app and past popularity. I don’t use the Play store but will this automatically update over the old Reddit app? Too bad Apollo didn’t pull the same thing.
