I think Voyager is based on the famous iOS reddit app (Apollo?) and is regularly updated. Looks really polished and I’m also using it on android next to sync.

You have to go first to “sources” and then it’s in the YouTube options
I’m on a german instance (feddit.de) and it’s federated with db0.
I think it’s just lemmy.world bullshit.
Has anyone read their post about their downtime?
“We shouldn’t close registration or limit the amount of communities because we’re not even the biggest instance in the fediverse”
Like, what?! The argument was always that they are the biggest in Lemmy! It felt like they were trying to gaslight the users.
Same as the other arguments, like new users being weirded out if they can’t register to lemmy.world or apps using them as default. So them being down all the time doesn’t matter? Or that lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and closed down registration and new users registered to other instances without a problem?
I’m really weirded out how hard they try to be the “main” thing on Lemmy.
Interesting! I tried it a bit more:
Seems like it’s a problem with this comment in particular, but I can’t figure out why!
Edit: I found another comment set to “Deutsch”, written in german, that can’t be changed no matter what.
I’m trying but the save button just loops endlessly…
What difference does it make? Aren’t you able to see the comment?
It has of course nothing to do with the enormous amount of money they rake through their app store by squeezing both the developers and the users.
Why would they try to force people to only use the store by implementing more and more security features along the way!?
It’s a mystery!

I agree with your points and like the idea of more specialized instances and also country related instances. I think it’s solvable if the different admins work together.
Lemmy.world doesn’t have to go private, they could just not accept more users and communities for a while. It wouldn’t change much since everyone will still be able to post and comment on Lemmy.world from all instances. New users would just have to choose a different instance that’s all.
For me that’s the whole point, I don’t see any benefit of a big instance, the Lemmyverse doesn’t need one.
Understandable, but aren’t growth and instability related in this case? There are many instances with capacity that are already run by capable people. Just spread the load (ahem) across the Lemmy verse and only handle as much as you can. But maybe I’m missing a point, I just think that this would be the best for Lemmy in the long run.
How about another approach?
There is no good reason for Lemmyworld to keep on growing to an extent that this kind of overhead is necessary. The idea of Lemmy is decentralization and not creating a new reddit instance. Close your registration, limit your amount of communities and let Lemmy grow in other directions.
If that’s what you did, then it worked! At least I see this post on Lemmy.
Something like this I guess. You can also add the air quality as a layer on top of GMaps. They probably didn’t do it this way because “weather” has more than one variable. A rain-radar-layer would be nice though…
