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?

It’s fine. Nothing impressive about it but nothing horrifying about it. Could use better testing and better documentation, it’s pretty weak on both fronts. It’s a pretty young/immature code base, hard to have much tech debt yet. Not like its core dependencies can be a decade out of date. But it’s easy to navigate and understand,relatively speaking.
I’ve seen one dev talk about documentation and it’s admittedly weak, but they’re pretty impacted by everything else. It’s on the burner and they’ll work on it at some point.
