Too many people are confusing the two. Whenever lemmy.ml or its devs do something stupid, people go “Lemmy is getting worse and worse,” or “I’m leaving Lemmy,” or worse, “I’m leaving for Beehaw.”

If you’re using Beehaw, then you’re using Lemmy. Lemmy is the software these instances run on. If you don’t like lemmy.ml, join another instances that have rules that match your philosophy. Some instance hosts authoritarian or fascist shit? Turn to another Lemmy instance. Lemmy.ml is not even the biggest instance. People who just joined and are unfamiliar with the platform will just think the entire Lemmyverse is run by autocratic admins if we don’t get our terminology right.

    In the lead developer’s GitHub, he sympathizes with Marxism

    Based

    There is no way I’ll use any personal information in my signup because this all probably is going to China.

    Typical liberalism red scare fearmongering, lemmy has no ties to China.

      In the lead developer’s GitHub, he sympathizes with Marxism including those that committed atrocities …

      FTFY

      It’s funny which part of the quote you decided to omit. Tankies gonna tank, eh?

      For those who haven’t checked - in the linked page dessalines(Lemmy lead dev) recommends books and articles by, among others, Lenin, Stalin & Castro.

        Stalin went too far, sure. We know.

        Fidel did nothing wrong. Lenin did what he had to do for the sake of revolution.
