    I’d say the biggest criticism is that it’s the largest instance, and is also a “general purpose” instance, which sort of takes away from the main goal of the fediverse. When 90% of content comes from one instance, it opposes the goal of decentralization.

    I chose lemdro.id because it’s nice and fast, the admins are very good, and its main topic is around technology/software which I like

    I think you’ve got the entire thought of photon wrong. Photon is not an “app” that you “install”, it is essentially a website. The docker container includes a server runner, meant for instance owners to deploy photon on their own instance easily.

    vger.app and alexandrite.app work the exact same way as photon for installation. You clone the app, build it, and run the server.

    There is no team of “devs” who are out of touch with privacy, it’s just me. This is a web app to access Lemmy in a different UI, and it’d be pretty stupid to dedicate time to tracking people when I’ve got homework to do.

    I could make a subdomain for phtn.app that does not proxy through cloudflare if you’d like.
