Lemmy.ml has fully went communist even their application needs you to copy paste a part from a communits book and that’s ok by me every politkcal group has their own instance and has the right to do as they wish . But they should really change their about from foss and privacy advocated to communist leaning .
EDIT : I don’t have any one political view i make my own and follow no one . Also i do think some views of communists are good and this is not my idea of throwing shade to lemmy devs just asking if there are any reasons that they still advertise it as for foss and privacy because i was going join and this stopped me.
EDIT : but it is a question though i am asking why they don’t change their about ?
The Lemmy devs are communist and .ml is their home and the original instance as far as I am aware. It is its own thing, but you will also find some dev legends are on .ml, and their active communities generally have the largest participation because they have the most hardcore subscribers that are long time users from before the redd exodus last year. At the time of the exodus, all of Lemmy was something like 2k daily active users across all instances. I look at it that genius tends to have excentricity. While most people live in conflict they fail to recognize, the most gifted both identify the problem and try to find real solutions, regardless of how popular culture aligns to address its incompetence.
