It’s a shame to see that people think of Lemmy creators as some sort of villains.
I created my account on .ml before the Reddit blackout, but there wasn’t much content there, so I didn’t use it much. I properly started using it after the “Reddit blackout,” and that’s when I learned about the so-called “tankie problem.” I’ve met people with weird opinions, but the developers and Marxists in general aren’t bad people. People just usually make a strawmen to argue against.
Anyway, none of their opinions are reflected in the software. Lemmy is done in a truly democratic and user-oriented way, and I respect them for it.
The Lemmy devs? I’d suggest to read what they actually write. They are good guys.
I also don’t think it matters. For example, I don’t really like the behavior of the Duckstation dev. It’s a PS1 emulator. But I don’t have to agree with him in order to use it.
PieFed literally uses a social credit score system and it gets lowered if you post content the Dev doesn’t like. It’s shit. And it’s ugly, people who want a low density enshittified web app interface should be actively filtered out.
Sure but PieFed doesn’t seem to have a tankie problem. They’re blocked from what I’ve seen.
Even if that wasn’t the case, PieFed doesn’t have a reputation for having a tankie problem.
The bottom line is when I promote PieFed I don’t get people on reddit telling me the UI sucked and that it’s flooded with pro-russia propaganda.
So I find it more efficient to promote PieFed
Anyone can instance can defederate from any other instance in Lemmy, not that hard to understand.

Those guys aren’t Marxists, they’re mentally unstable Americans with a fetish for authoritarianism.
