Why specifically a Lego branded community? (self.lego)

With more and more alternatives appearing to Lego which also increase in variety and even surpass at times Lego quality, why focus just on this company for a brick building community? I for example have been badly burned by Lego's handling of the Mindstorms brand and there are more compatibility broken product lines from Lego.

Is posting other brands alright here? Will it lead to unpleasant conflicts from Lego, if their brand name is used?

Makes sense. The Reddit Lego community is pretty active, so keeping it focused helps. That said, I appreciate the openness here for other block brand posts for the time being.

When a lepin community (or anything else regarding other bricks) join Lemmy, i'll be sure to join them, other bricks manufacturer are cheaper and has way more diversity!

Honestly I don't see the need to have multiple communities for the same hobby. We're all adults here, people shouldn't care what name is stamped on your plastic building brick system. Needless division only works to make us smaller on arbitrary lines.
