Company is dead, assuming the protocol and community/devs is as decentralised as it’s supposed to be, this shouldn’t be a HUGE issue

They made it the biggest pain in the ass possible to set up independent instances and went all in on the coin, so I don't have high hopes. Very disappointing, since it was quite a good program.

I bailed on it a couple of years ago because I found it an unpleasant user experience. Had it improved since then?

yeah, for sure it did. rumble performs better though, unfortunately.
I try rumble again every few months... I mostly use YouTube on my android tv box (NVidia Shield TV), and the experience is generally better than Rumble. As much as I'd prefer not to be tied to Google, given how much content they suppress, it kind of sucks overall.

It's hard to get a sense of new/good content from those that I follow without having to check each channel manually. Which may be fine for some, but on YouTube as a contrasting for instance I'm following like 150+ channels on various topics of interest. Rumble is about 30 and already difficult to manage.
