Where does FOSS come in to it? Doesn't seem related to the OP?
Lemmy is FOSS. Lemmy and the reactions were being compared to reddit which is not FOSS, and it was being said that Lemmy is worse for bigotry.
Do you not comprehend how a thread works or are you incapable of retaining basic context?
Thanks. Did not make that connection. Lemmy is different to reddit in many ways (e.g. smaller, federated, moderated differently). The fact that the source is available doesn't seem like something that would have an meaningful effect on the userbase, 99%+ of whom never interact with the code.
I see. Lemmy, and the fediverse in general, have a higher concentration of FOSS-minded people.
