Hello, these rumors are getting out of hand. To make matters worse, they are rejecting Lemmy (the software) because of the rumors about the developers. You really need to do something about this, because the reputation of Lemmy (the software) is in serious danger. Thank you for listening to my concern about malicious rumors.

These rumors are nothing new and the developers of Lemmy have responded to them several times. They are not completely untrue, but IMHO not so relevant if you join a instance not controlled by the main devs or host your own (both of which is highly encouraged even by the main Lemmy developers themselves).
