    Interesting.

    I came into this not having formed an opinion, but after reading their proudly linked founding manifesto and viewing some of the comments of the devs, including making light of the Ethnocide of Uyghurs, I’m quite sure they are the very definition of tankies.

    That aside, as long as Lemmy the software is open source and people can freely choose with whom to federate, I don’t see it being an issue.

      I think that second part is the part that the vocal dissidents dont quite realise, or won’t

        I can’t blame them for that. One of the biggest issues getting Lemmy to grow is going to be how difficult it is for the average person to grasp how it works.
