I am always fascinated with these types of comments, specifically for a free and open-source software. There are lemmy instances supporting hundreds of thousands of users and trafic, feedback from both server owners and lemmy devs is almost instantaneous.

A platform like lemmy requires client side knowledge to build both desktop and mobile UI (that are performant), it requires ActivityPub knowledge to integrate with the Fediverse, it requires backend knowledge to build APIs for 100% feature compatibility with 3rd party apps. It requires DB knowledge to optimize queries, it requires devops / platform knowledge to deploy it.

And all of this is built in public.

TBF the boat disaster could have been a rescue story as well if someone cared enough. There are two major countries naval fleets in the Atlantic, whereas the story is much different in the Mediterranean.

Yeah, it really adds a great touch to the informative content.
