      You leave reddit because the ceo introduces shitty pricing but you don’t mind the main devs being literal fascists?

        The beauty of federated networks is you can avoid the platforms with these kinds of people altogether. I typically avoid lemmy.ml altogether unless I don’t have a choice and even then it’s pretty easily to find alternatives.

        The project is open source and anyone can create instances, that’s why its irrelevant.

          The way it works in practice is that the largest instances are where most people go. What is stopping those devs from imposing their views on the community, e.g. by censoring?

            If that happens word gets out and people switch and currently the instances ran by the OG tankies are actively trying to dissuade people from joining.
