The Lemmy devs are a bunch of tankie weirdos, so I’m definitely not going to give money to them.

Thanks. I was about to post that I haven’t yet decided whether to donate to my instance or the developers. I might just go with your opinion

Lemmy.ml is the devs instance, and they have a habit of banning anyone who even slightly differs from their opinions. Basically, if you’re not a tankie like them, they will likely ban you.

They’re not interested in free discussions.

Slight correction: Lemmy.ml is their reach-out and diplomacy instance. Their actual instance is lemmygrad.

I guess their diplomacy with me was to follow me around and downvote everything I posted until I just abandoned my original account.

Exactly they only harassed you instead of sending you straight to permaban gulag. Took me all of four or five days to get banned from lemmygrad and that’s without even posting in their communities.
