I found it complicated at first (didn’t know which instance “will last”, where to register to not lose anything when instance admin decide to turn it down), but now it’s going good. We are missing mobile apps though.

What’s are your thoughts about Lemmy/kbin?

    I don’t like some background of Lemmy devs that I was reading about, but I’m still not sure what make of it…

    @pound_heap@lemm.ee – out of interest, what have you read? 👀

      Yup, that what other person replied. There was a post on r/privacy which I cannot look up today due to the boycott - it was about Lemmy developers being very radical communists.

      The software being open source makes this less concerning, but in case original devs start doing something crazy it will damage the project significantly.

      Lemmy developers have communist figures as avatars. They manage the lemmy.ml instance, which other instances tend to defederate.

      That should not prevent people from using a platform they don’t manage (Lemmy.world or Beehaw) and they can’t influence in anyway. The code is open source anyway.
