Is Lemmy's code base "good"? - eviltoast

I know that Lemmy is open source and it can only get better from here on out, but I do wonder if any experts can weigh in whether the foundation is well written? Or are we building on top of 4 years worth of tech debt?

    Which… makes sense. The creator of doesn’t like coding.

    I actually hate programming, but I love solving problems. I really don’t like programming. I built this tool to program less so that I could just reuse code. PHP is about as exciting as your toothbrush.

    So PHP it born out of a dislike of coding. In turn the documentation is all over the place and inconsistent.
