Kbin and Lemmy operate on the same network, so if somebody has a problem with that they are better off on the first platform. Or they can just host their own instance like Behaw mods do. I just wish people would finally shut up about Lemmy's developer views, it's a circlejerk at this point
They are better off picking another instance anyway, enough people are joining lemmy.ml at the moment. I hope that the way things have taken off during the last few days show people that Lemmy is a diverse community, just like Reddit was.
Tech geeks, political nerds, sex pests, sports fanatics, and gamers all in one room.
It's just normal Reddit behavior. You're not going to escape it by going to another version of Reddit.
No, it's not a circljerk. Developer views turn into "we've surpassed benevolent dictatorship views". It's the same reason Twitter and Reddit are turning into crap - the absurd views of those in change absolutely impact the community whether we believe they don't and it's high time we stop shrugging it off and hold people accountable.
I hope the dev changes his views... but i'm not holding my breathe.
I'd argue that if the code is open source and the instances are independent, then the dev doesn't matter beyond merely the marketing, and the marketing will be affected by the rise of larger instances, like Lemmy.world.
