Some of it is though. For example, they take forever to update their servers when new versions of Lemmy are released and it often breaks compatibility with apps. They also have constant service disruption. Even if it is ddos attacks, they should be trying to mitigate them.
I'm a Linux user, so I use .gz and .bz primarily for compression. If I just need to archive without compression I'll just make a tarball. People on windows never complain. Maybe it's just that I'm in the IT field, but most people have an archiving program installed. Plus, I am pretty sure Win11 can open most archive formats natively now.
I'm on Lemmy.world. I just picked it because it was one of the biggest, but I haven't been entirely happy with it.

I think you misunderstand the reason they need to fight fake news. It's for the boomers. Kids these days are very media literate and skeptical of everything. It's really all the boomers who are falling for misinformation and spreading it on Facebook.

They are an embarrassment to Americans.
