Yes, exactly. haha, the distro has nothing to do with the GUI. That’s your Desktop Environment. On almost every single popular distro you can get teh same DE’s either through official offerings or community versions.

Isn’t this the overarching problem with lemmy just in general though? I mean, I’m loving it here, but without GOOD moderation any community, no matter where or how it’s hosted, can become very bad very quickly. I’m not blaming you all at all!! I completely understand where you’re coming from, but this is the same scaling issues that mastadon faces right? Is there any idea about how to address this?

Little bit of both. I used to use Apollo on mobile, but I was one of the unfortunate early users who got screwed over with constant ads later in that apps life which annoyed me SO MUCH OMG so I moved to reddplanet. And I love it! Cannot stand and will never ever again use anything by the Apollo dev. Extremely immoral. But I guess hey what do you expect. Shady devs be shady devs.

Doctorow is so effin genius to coin that term
