No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I'm hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don't love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren't out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

No apollo app no reddit. I agree the UI/UX is problematic but the native reddit ad filled app is way worse. Lemmy both has lots of room to still improve the experience but its build well enough already to actually function and people to be here.

Its also open source, decentralized, possible to self host. Aka owned by the people rather then corpos. All those things for the new homepage of the internet? I can only get so errect.

Memmy is starting to look like it could be an Apollo for Lemmy soon.

I have looked into it but since they want me to "build" it and it seems to involve typing a bunch of code I don't understand I'm less keen on it.

Hopefully there will be a straight up app sooner rather than later, and I can download that.

You're (understandably) misunderstanding how github works. The code is there for people to review if they want to, but you can just download the finished product. Are you on android or IOS?
