Could be politics. A lot of people are appearently upset about the owners political views, which I think is very silly myself.
Also it seems that Reddit users are brigading against the Lemmy network due to the opinions of the instance owner on lemmy.ml.
Its just so stupid, all of this. Why are people like this? Why do we demand everyone to think the same way and have similar opinions, or we feel like we need to go fight them? We dont have enough things to fight about in the real world?
That's sad indeed.
What views? And do you mean owner of lemmy.ml or browse.feddit.de ?
I meant Lemmy.ml. You can Google and find the controversy if you like, but to me it's not a serious problem. The point of the fediverse is that each instance has its own rules. If you don't like what Lemmy.ml is doing, use another instance. Don't brigade against the entire network, like reddit users are doing. The technology itself is awesome.
Thanks, I think I found it. Good point regarding the technology and how you can just switch instances in case there's anything wrong.
