Hi everyone. Another refugee from reddit here. What's the drama with the Lemmy teams politics? I've seen a few people warn that they're not great, but the only example that I actually saw was an argumentative back-and-forth in a github issue about filter lists for slurs.

It didn't seem particularly damning to me.

I'm not really concerned that any particular instance is really going to impact my usage of the fediverse, but thanks for the info. It's good to be aware that a particular instance may be biased.

Yeah I ended up in the same boat pretty much. I'll likely still participate in some lemmy.ml communities, but if discussion of politics comes up I'll just keep in mind that the community has a certain bias.
