Guess where? Unironically r/Save3rdPartyApps

The Reddit search for Lemmy also gives these privacy copy-pasta as top results when searching for Lemmy. I'm still betting that Reddit employees are involved in boosting these posts.

Don’t go to Lemmy it’s founders are bad. Conveniently ignores the Reddit CEO who is actively lying and user hostile.

And used to moderate r/jailbait a pedophile sub for pedophiles. Oh! That also added in the backend of reddit that he is secretly allowed to edit other people's comments. Its also clear that reddit is saving all data that is deleted since reddit started recreating posts and comments if the user delete too much.

A lot of things we use on the internet were created by bad people, the difference is that this bad person isnt a large corporations and is taking real steps to prevent his own interference by making it open source.
