What is the motivating logic for 'waiting for more clients'? I'm not doubting you, I just hear the reason mentioned for lots of things and am curious to know the why behind it

Nothing deep really, just that more clients means more options to choose from. It also helps innovation as developers get ideas from other clients to improve theirs. The lemmy app explosion 2 years ago was a fun time as there were a ton of clients with their own design philosophy to choose from. Also, I browse lemmy/piefed on a desktop browser 80% of the time, so it's great to see desktop UI alternatives. For example, Alexandrite is optimized for desktop browsing and it maximizes screen real estate compared to the default lemmy UI. I see blorp has a browser UI as well, however it seems to still be optimized for mobile browser viewing.
