I mean… I don’t get what they’re lamenting, lemmy.ml, even if created by comrades, is a pretty liberal instance, comrades like yoghots (shout out to him) get censored and banned unjustly all the time, they just can’t stand the fact that people have ideologies differing from the democratic party.
Reddit loves hating communists. Don’t tell them where Bernie gets his ideas from!
considering half of them flipped from Bernie to Trump during the election, i don’t think they actually cared that much about his politics.
People not getting what Lemmy is.
Like there’s even someone comparing it to what Reddit does with your data. I mean, Reddit sells your data lol. On Lemmygrad we don’t even have tracking software. You could add it if you want to on your instance, but it doesn’t come with a Lemmy installation.
Or the people complaining that your vote history is exposed if you use kbin, which is not affiliated with Lemmy… like what more do you want lol. Voting is not anonymous on Lemmy due to how federation works, but it’s not exposed, it stays in the database.
The original thread they linked from lemmy.ml is someone complaining that you can get banned from lemmy.ml for orientalism. Good?
Lemmy as a software is the most advanced alternative anyone has to make a reddit-like website easily. It just is, nothing else comes close. They will either realise it soon enough, or they will go back to Reddit.
Are allegations even real or could be held against him?
Also, the privacy aspect is actually a good point there. Would’ve enjoyed if it was more private focused.
Those accusations come from raddle, anarchist space which admin is an absolutely insufferable moron who have tons of sockpuppet accounts which pretend anyone come there.

i honestly didn’t know it was so liberal until the shitlibs showed up and destroyed all conversation that didn’t agree with them
then i remembered i had an account here and i just don’t go back there anymore
It’s a pretty liberal space, there are some extremely liberal communities/users around. I would honestly almost understand the arguments if people were advocating they come to lemmygrad or something.
Maybe (let’s be honest, definitely) they are just upset they can’t be overtly racist towards Chinese people and get celebrated for it.
