I really like the concept of a federated message board. This is what I wanted for my life. However, Lemmy.ml is kinda difficult to surf through comments and it’s actually bothering me. It actually clones the new reddit, while the old reddit was much better in terms of reading.
On paper there’s lemmy-lite, but I don’t know if any instance supports it.
Probably not, there was no activity in the repo during the last 2 years and since then the API was updated.
