Fair warning that I’ve heard people say that Lemmy 1.0 will break compatibility with old apps. I don’t use 3rd party apps but wanted to offer you that heads-up so you won’t be taken entirely by surprise if it happens.
Your instance also looks increasingly likely to defederate from Lemmy.world too, which even though it now has “only” 50% of all the active people present on the Threadiverse (compared to the 80% that it used to have), nonetheless it also still has sth like 90% of the most popular communities. Your instance would also thereby block the top posters too, like ThePicardManeuver and Sunshine’s PieFed accounts. Even if you aren’t into all the political leftist in-fighting drama, you nonetheless will be affected by it when Lemmy starts looking a lot more empty after that. So you may want to start looking into making an alt, for multiple reasons.
And if you need a recommendation as a place to start, I suggest checking out slrpnk.net. You would still be able to access all the same communities from there, since it’s neutral territory. Please note I have no pony in this race - obviously feel entirely free to ignore, I just offered this as a thought to consider:-).
Wow, that’s an app that I haven’t heard mentioned for like… years. Is it still being actively developed?
Not really, last commit was last year. Still works, though, and I haven’t found anything yet that I like better.
Then keep using what you enjoy! 😁

I appreciate the advice. I’ll check out some more apps on F-Droid if everything starts breaking.
