I made a blog post discussing my biggest issues with Lemmy and why I am kind of done with it as a software.

The choice of Rust limited the ability for people to contribute. If I had gotten a dollar every time I read “I would like to contribute to Lemmy, but I don’t have time to learn Rust”, I would get a beer to everyone in this thread.

Rust is really not as hard to learn as some people claim. If they dont have time for this, how will they have time to contribute to Lemmy? Besides lemmy-ui is written in Typescript and could also use a lot more contributions.
