Guess where? Unironically r/Save3rdPartyApps
The Reddit search for Lemmy also gives these privacy copy-pasta as top results when searching for Lemmy. I’m still betting that Reddit employees are involved in boosting these posts.
Don’t go to Lemmy it’s founders are bad. Conveniently ignores the Reddit CEO who is actively lying and user hostile.
I’ll take the Lemmy founders over Spez any day. The founders like china, Spez likes slavery and jailbait, and has a doomsday fetish
Whatever you think of the developers’ politics, the fact is that it’s federated and open source. So if you don’t like the politics of an instance you don’t have to use that instance. And if you administer an instance and you don’t like the content from another instance, you can defederate from that other instance. If the code has issues (which anyway are very seldom political) anyone can contribute a fix. And if the developers start taking the code in a direction you don’t approve of, you can fork the project and start a new version.
Given all this, the stuff about the politics of the developers just seems like an attempt to spread FUD.
Reddit is working it’s way through: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. At first, Lemmy didn’t matter. Nothing had any financial impact on them. Now we move on to anger.
Can’t wait for the beginning of the bargaining phase on like July 2. :)

Testing.
Oh wait, this is a recent commit. Probably coming in the next version.
A search for “raddle vs lemmy” also turns up a very spicy post from a couple weeks ago (on raddle) regarding one of Lemmy’s creators, not sure what to make of it personally.
that link is a steaming pile of screeching stupidity and circle-je***ing. I… I just have no words.
Oh no someone has a political opinion i disagree with! Please brush over the fact spez posted CP when Reddit was just starting.
If you’re referring to r/jailbait, that was there for years, well after reddit was just starting. It was even a promoted sub!
