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.

    I’ve seen far too many people pasting those raddle links as “proof” that lemmy is bad and to fear the scary tankies, yet they never compare anything to how reddit operates or the fact that lemmy is FOSS.

    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.
