Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

If "lemmy is developed by socialists/communists/leftists" is enough for folks to steer clear of it (or move over to kbin, as I've seen at least one radlib insist that folks do rather than lemmy), then... "task failed successfully" in my eyes. No real loss.
Yeah, I'd rather the community grows slower, but attracts sane people than having rapid growth of liberals with addled brains.
I feel like lurkers are not considered in the growth, the sudden user influx is something that broke the camel's back for me and made me return. But with the same influx of users there definitely was also lurkers who came over, although I guess after the blackout their numbers will dwindle the quickest, as they are more for consumption rather than propagation.
The Rust community pitching going to Kbin cracked me up.
What's so speical about the rust community?
Lemmy is programmed in rust, so that means those turbolibs prefer something built in another programming language over something built in their favorite one.
Oh, you meant Rust as in a programming language, I was thinking about Rust as in the video game
