It seems to have become a habit that most good things about the internet is linked to the EU. I'm really grateful. That being said, I hope that Lemmy can become a collaborative project uniting a lot of devs rather than rely on two people.

About the scandal; as long as their opinions do not influence the platform I don't see them as relevant to Lemmy. If they are illegal, let justice do its work.

...what scandal?
It appears that they support the CCP and deny the Uyghur genocide.
Any specific link to that?

Not casting any accusation myself, but you could check it out.

On another topic, there are rumors circulating that we are fascists or supported genocide. These claims are completely false, and like most viral twitter threads, are coming from a single Mastodon user on a personal vendetta who didn’t provide any sources. Such slander doesn’t deserve any response and is best left ignored.

Jesus christ, what a dumpster fire that comments section was.

  • There is nothing that links to @[email protected] there.

  • Ask yourself: what is this person gaining from spreading misinformation and trying to make people to hate Lemmy developers?

  • @dessalines - Lemmy

    Lemmy

    I never said anything about that person, your copy/paste comment is not relevant to what I said. I don't hate the devs, I said the comments section of the post that was linked to is a dumpster fire of tankies and genocide apologists.
    I am talking about @spirit not you.
    Then why are you replying to me...?
