Well. It’s in their documents/history. https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/07-history-of-lemmy.html https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/07-history-of-lemmy.html It’s also in their github. They actively suppress statements in their instance and communities, some of which are the largest/most active on the subject. They use the pictures of communist/authoritarian leaders in their profile pics and profile headers etc. So it’s very in your face, both in the instance and on GitHub. There’s plenty more, I’ve linked it in previous comments in my profile if you care to look. So… 1. It makes me VERY hesitant to reccomend this software as a result. It’s very in your face and anyone that looks into it will absolutely see the links. 2. It makes me very hesitant to contribute for the same reasons. 3. They aren’t just communists. They are actively in support of authoritarian regimes and in active denial of genocide. So it’s not just politics to me. I have friends and family from some of these communist regimes that risked life and limb to escape. Both from Cuba and post Soviet regimes, ANd the thumb of China witb some family from Vietnam. So yeah, it’s not just “views” to everyone. EDIT: More context: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36731097 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36731097

> There’s plenty more, I’ve linked it in previous comments in my profile if you care to look. Not the person you were responding to but I went through your comments and all I did was waste my time. Really. I don't like wasting my time. I'm too old for that. I did note a the picture on lemmy.ml but not much else. Some passive comments from the developer about wealth inequality among 100s of comments related to lemmy development. The only link you provided (history of lemmy) has statements like: "silicon valley surveillance-capitalist machine that commodifies users to sell ads and paid flairs, and propagandizes pro-US interests above all." (I don't think he's wrong about this) "rise in anti-China posts that have hit Reddit lately, and along with that comes anti-chinese racism, which Reddit tacitly encourages." (As he continues, he seems so much more concerned about the actual racism and hate crimes). I'm done here...
