I’ve made accounts on servers running these different software and the user experience feels similar between them. They’re all FOSS Reddits. I can log into servers running all of em via the same Interstellar app on Android and see the same communities
Are there more notable differences for folks running the server or the mods running the individual communities/subredits?
Or am i misunderstanding them?
The idea behind Python is to get the community to contribute. More people know Python than Assembly or Fortran. At some point, running a FOSS project like Piefed becomes a numbers game. Having more developers is useful in the beginning.
If Piefed grows significantly, it might make sense to rewrite the whole thing in a different language, but right now, contributions matter more than efficiency.
Or you follow the python ethos and when it matters, you profile the code, and rewrite only the modules that need it in a lower level language.
That would make more sense. Best of the both worlds.
