I keep hearing on Mastodon and elsewhere how the Lemmy devs like to close github issues prematurely, are condescending to people when responding to the issues, host CCP, North Korean, and Russian propaganda on their instances and delete any criticism of those regimes ETC. Even if you don’t care about the propaganda stuff, the rest does not bode well for accessibility fixes or continued cooperation and communication between RBlind mods and lemmy staff in the future. It’s concerning, to say the least.
Because they got used to Reddit, where everyone who isn’t radcial center (Markets and Capitalism are the only way) gets banned.
I dont agree with his views either, but he does great work, doesnt own the protocol, but gifted it to the public and isn’t pushing his believes on others.
IMHO we should get used again to discussing with people who have have a diffrent opinion, instead of only talking to people who already have our opinion.
Yes and no. We do block Lemmygrad for hosting truly vile Russian propaganda.
Just an FYI, Lemmygrad is run by the devs of Lemmy.
If the fact we’re running Lemmy offends you, you’re more than welcome not to be here. I’m uninterested in further discussion on this matter.
Ok bye.
Have to come back to this post later, Was a few days on lemmygrad and looked around,sadly quite disappointing. I have absolutely nothing against communists, but this is just a egotrip circlejerk of privileged violence hungry people in a lot of places. People thinkt their worldview and communism is they only and absolute truth, totally denying the diversity in the Marxist scene, loosing the ability to think (self-) critical in the process.
From what I saw quite a circlejerk with strawman arguements and few acutall produktive discussions :/
Maybe I looked in the wrong placed or got people off on the wrong foot, but that was not a place I would spent time in or put work
That doesn’t little the devs technical work and the nice thing Lemmy is, but moderating is maybe not their best quality.
