    but I love its privacy focused aspects

    Having worked at /e/OS, on the microG part, I can tell you that the privacy focus is way less than whatever you think it is. Also, the companies (yes, plural) behind /e/ or whatever it’s called now are French, and the French laws regarding government and intelligence agencies access to personal data are lax. By using /e/ and their services, you are not passing data to the US, you are not passing data to China, but rather you are passing data to France and the /e/ team - which if you search around, you might find out that they don’t have a really good street cred.

    Meaning no offense to Lemmy devs, Lemmy still has some things to iron out until they can safely say “we’re at version 1.0” - it’s in beta, being battle tested as we speak, and it’s not afraid to push feature breaking changes. For example, the latest version, 0.18, fixed a very annoying bug that pushed new posts in real-time (websockets) when using the web interface, but disabled captcha. Jerboa, the main Android client, pushed an update that removed compatibility with Lemmy below 0.18. lemmy.world, who competes with lemmy.ml for the first two instances by number of users, refused to upgrade to 0.18 because it needs captcha to ward off bots - now you can’t use Jerboa with lemmy.world, and the web interface has the bug with new posts. So, all this rant should give you the idea that Lemmy is far from production ready, and it’s not a desirable choice, yet.
