SibboWow, didn't know the people making Lemmy were that bad and deny genocides. But I also don't have time to read and understand all the old posts, and I have no idea who the people are who are talking abotu this, so it is incredibly hard to say if it is trustworthy or not. Would be interesting to get a statement from the lemmy developers today about this, to see what they think about the uighur thing and north korea today.
CleoTheWizardI'm not about to defend their opinions but to me, I don't see how they matter. It sucks that I wouldn't find the devs to be ethical in that case, but I care far more about this federated platform. As long as they keep it to their own instance and keep developing an open platform for others, I don't know that it's relevant.
KameloI completely agree with this, the entire point of federated services is if you don't want to share the website with edgy internet socialists you just don't join one that ends in .ml. It's not like only the best people in the world use Reddit...
