I'm new to lemmy, so I could be missing some context, but you arent making a very good pitch with this post. Java is a downgrade from rust, and unless I'm reading wrong you seem to suggest they are planning to deliberately introduce new features into this java implementation as a way to break up the network on purpose, which would make lemmy instances obsolete, and you sort of present it as a good thing and suggest its a deliberate political move on behalf of sublinks. But you didn't even explain in your post why lemmy exactly needs to be replaced. So you are calling lemmy toxic, but already this new project is just seeming very underhanded and manipulative by its very existence. As a user who just wants a better reddit alternative, reading this post makes me feel like I stumbled upon a project motivated by a grudge (just based on the way it's phrased) and you leave me more inclined to speak out against it than endorse it, since it seems like an attempt to divide the network, and I've seen what happens to divided networks where instances have different features and refuse to work together (just look at XMPP). So unless you can explain what is wrong with lemmy's development or roadmap I think everybody reading this should be very skeptical of sublinks and cautious of the threat posed by projects like this in general.

1 step forward, 4 steps back!

It can be both though.

that's why the fediverse exists

The collapse won't stop ai output from spamming the internet though. It will just make it worse and more likely to be incorrect

dead internet theory is self-fulfilling
