  • China (and local business men) usually have multiple times of profit from the same movie.

    Early released movies are not good quality. But they would sell it and people would buy it. When the movie was officially released, they would sell the same movie again as better version of the movie. Sometimes they will even sell 4 in 1 (4 movies in a single disc), different movie with same name, prequels and BluRay version.

    I think your choppy version is the product of the early profit model of Chinese business men.







  • I understand your frustrations on lack of features you need.

    The first one you quoted is not to point out your inability to dictate the direction. It is for the suggested actions I want to make.

    I work in software industry. To my understanding your analogy to foundation and house is spot on but there is some major flaw. After building the house the foundation cannot be redone. In software, in this case API and clients, they can be changed anytime.

    Technically, Lemmy server is backend + frontend and done in Rust programming language. Voyage is frontend and done in Typescript and ionic. To come back to your analogy, your suggestion is like asking interior designer to do structural engineering. (aeharding could be proficient in both frontend and backend but I don’t know)

    If you have the extra resources to donate to charity, you could do one of my suggestions instead. It will make more work done for both Lemmy and voyager app. This is just my opinion.

    As far as I know Lemmy has been created some years ago and most of us knew it now because of reddit API changes. Lemmy is not feature complete as existing commercial one. The voyager app also is not feature complete. A lot of people are working happily and free for both Lemmy server and clients. So your opinion and suggestions to emphasize on Lemmy server dev is not very popular (at least I could say that seeing your downvotes).

    P.S. you drop a lot when you quote me.
