  Because so many keep getting told it’s by tankies and stop thinking immediately after that

  Deb’s a tankie with the most bullshit oppinions ever seen on earth.

    Not true.

      Demonstrably true. Try saying anything contrary to a tankie talking point on .ml and see how long before you get banned. May I suggest “Russia was wrong for invading Ukraine” for starters, or “China committed unjustifiable atrocities against peaceful protestors”.

        You’re replying to one of the Lemmy devs. Hearing them say it’s not true when they literally run .ml as a tankie community is hilarious.

        Russia was wrong for invading Ukraine.

        In fact, Russia is an expansionist state with rampant nationalism and homophobia and led by an obvious fascist. I support the political autonomy of Ukrainians.

        Catch me in the modlogs.

        Now, I believe all of that, but I can also believe that there are geopolitical forces making the situation more nuanced and complex, that the people of the Donbass also deserve political autonomy, and that Ukrainians are being used in a proxy battle between NATO and one of its chief rivals.

  Is this bait? There is hardly any hostility here towards the software and the Lemmy devs want to push the world towards being an authoritarian hellscape. If anything they dont get enough shit.

    The user is from .ml, it’s a bad-faith post imo.

      The user has been on this platform since 2020, long before .world existed and .dbzer0 was a twinkle in dbzer0’s eye. Yes, the user chooses to stay on the instance that gets updated first and stays federated with all of .world, PieFed, and also the lifeboat chapo community that did and has continued to produce the funniest leftist content on the platform.

      I’ve been in this comm for years. It’s the number one organizing spot for anti-lemmy developers to push their alternatives. There was a Java one before PieFed took off. And when you look under the surface, the reasons are pretty much always because anti-communism.

      You see it’s actually people like y’all that scream “witch” at users, accuse them of interacting with bad faith, and spread FUD in this platform.

  Are you referring to !fediverse@lemmy.world? This wasn’t posted by the mods.

  • thoro@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    This comm is often full of comments pushing lemmy alternatives, with PieFed being the new frontrunner.

    You’d think the post here would include Lemmy, which I believe is still the most active platform

      But it’s the same platform! They all interoperate!

      • diffaldo@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Piefed sometimes makes it hard to interoperate: communick.news/comment/8015757

        I understand, but most of us are here from the efforts of all those who built Lemmy and it was deliberately left off here as an alternative

        Yeah I agree, its all the same TBH.

      People on Lemmy don’t need to be told about Lemmy though?

      source

      • thoro@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        People on Lemmy don’t really need to be told about most of these. What’s your point? You and I both know this image was made for people outside Lemmy. In fact, it was updated to remove Lemmy
