yup, this is what I do and it works great. just be careful if you add plugins that store a ton of metadata that changes a lot (or logs) because that can lead to some sync conflicts and you might wanna exclude them. I've just been ignoring the sync conflicts tho and haven't had issues yet so maybe you could do the same

fair but "it" here is pretty vague. my guess is that, in your case, whatever part of "it" that processes the image handles webp files just fine but for some reason the devs made "it" reject file extensions that don't match ".jpeg", ".png", ".whatever_else" for some reason before the file gets handled further.

afaik it doesn't support any notifs yet so report notifications will probably be added at the same time as general notification functionality.

it's not against tos if that's what you were implying. unlike vanced, they don't distribute a modified YouTube app, just the patches and the patcher.

but the devs of these popular reddit apps likely have recycled a tonnn of their reddit app's code into the Lemmy app and and are therefore working with a much more mature codebase that they're also much more comfortable with. for example, I'm loving liftoff but it has so many random bugs that, while not awful, are a bit jarring. and the vast majority of them aren't Lemmy bugs, they're just normal app bugs that haven't been worked out yet. and while I'm sure the liftoff devs are great, it's a new app and will experience growing pains that sync likely won't deal with as much.

try logging in via username rather than email or the opposite depending on what you've tried. thats the only issue I've had with logging in

for the people downvoting this, they called that person a dingus bc their username is literally dingus

best time to make that decision is the present. personally I just transferred over my subscriptions and deleted the account of the previous instance I was on. it didn't take much time.
