Lemmygrad and Lemmyml are run by the same insane people...

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes indeed but despite their more extreme beliefs compared to the average lemmings, they are quite lenient and accepting with lemmy.ml. I wouldn't call the devs insane, solely for the fact that they gladly welcomed all the Reddit immigrants despite that they get numerous hate posts about their ideology.

Just to clarify, I'm just a normal libcenter guy, not an extremist.

My multiple bans would suggest otherwise, you either get downvoted or banned. They really don't like it when people actually agree with you.

That wouldn't have anything to do with you being an obnoxious dink, would it?

Can you tell me an example? I find no reason hating someone if they agree with you.

I mean, if you make a comment arguing against their weird commie POV and it actually gets traction, they don't like it one bit.

Huh, didn't know that. Lemmyml seemed totally fine though?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Lemmy.ml is run by the developers of Lemmy. They align with lemmygrad, however they try to keep their politics out of lemmy.ml. How successful they are with that is another matter.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

Well, I've never come across anything that made me notice, which is certainly a good thing.

As of a few months ago, lemmygrad is run by them as well. I don't remember the specifics, but there was talk of some form of taking over every other Lemmy instance as well (I know there were calls for it from at least one of the tankie communities, either lemmygrad or hexbear), and the general hostility of both lemmygrad and hexbear users was why many instances defederated from them at that time.
