I just had a look, nothing has changed, the website is still using Lemmy’s content to pretend to be active

    i would say youre running before you can walk.

    you have an unfinished product, and you say youre in no hurry… then why do you insist on scraping the fediverse?

    finish your product, or dont. if you cant, there are plenty of open source platforms you could implement today. but youre not. why not?

    if you insist on building a new wheel, finish it already or stop asking why people dont want to interact with you.

      The issue is that definition of “finish” varies person to person. This is why I am asking for a common set of fair rules we can agree on, so we can finish.

        im tellin ya. make a product that participates and attributes the content back to its source, or dont bother. those are your options.

        as it is you are monetizing other sites content with no attribution.
