I haven’t checked Lemmy for a long time but I wanna get off Reddit again, yet I still need to know how many users are on here. Which lemmy instances are suitable to me, the most popular, and which ones to avoid? For context, im queer, anarchist with DemSoc leaning, and environmentalist. Is there a comprehensive list of all the instances and their main functions? Is the instance I’m on still workable? Any feedback would help, thx. <3
We didn’t want to be lending any form of support to developers who deny genocide and promote transphobia.
So we found a more ethical solution and than it turns out the developers are fucking amazing and it’s progressing so fast that it’s leaving Lemmy in the dust. Many people are now moving because it’s offering features and improvements that the Lemmy devs refused to.
Thanks for the explanation.
Now I know to stick with lemmy.
Accusations of genocide denial isn’t the cheat code you think it is, or do you not deny the genocide of white South Africans? And what say you to this one? Previously.
And if accusations of promoting transphobia held any water, blahaj & hexbear would have already defederated from us.
Q.E.D.

Wait, THIS is what people are talking about when they say the devs are transphobic?
The dev admitting he said stupid shit in private, supports human rights for everyone, and his personal views should have nothing to do with his work?
Consider the first rule of the Lemmy code of Conduct is:
Yes, I know that’s all you’ve got as far as lemmy.ml promoting transphobia goes.
You are making this about Lemmy.ml to change the subject from this being about the Lemmy devs themselves. You like to deflect a lot I’ve noticed.
Don’t argue with idiots. It’s never worth it.
For which you have precisely the same “evidence,” no more, no less.
I keep telling you .ml chuds — stop talking when your masters aren’t in the room. Cowbee isn’t here to argue or moderate for you, go back to your pen.
cowbee doesn’t even moderate anything aside from a single theory comm on hexbear
you deserved to be banned for transphobia
No, actually — I’ve shared this exact discussion with my trans friends. They all think you’re insane. Soon Lemmy will be dead and most people will be using Piefed. I’m planning on switching soon, specifically because of you demented cultists. Fuck the devs of this dogshit platform, and fuck you for being a genocide denier.
This is such a funny thing to say to davel… you know an admin of .ml.
Why should I give a shit about differentiating between the cultists?
You are all equally trash.
@Jax você se acha muito esperto, né seu bunda mole. Vá a merda rapaz!
@fediverse @davel
Brilliant, homophobia. This is the shining example of what lies at the heart of every .ml user.
More countries doing a genocide is not an argument against another one doing it
Woosh
No, I don’t think so
@SkaveRat you show how much you don’t know shit.
Whites are not genocided in South Africa, you naive boy.
This is a alt right claim, much like “the great replacement” and other MAGA, extreme right shit.
@fediverse @davel
Sure. But denying a happening genocide can be as right wing as claiming a fake one
Just because nazis use the same words, doesn’t invalidate all cases where these words are used
“Just because nazis use the same words”
They use the same words ABOUT THE SAME INSTANCES AS YOU
And because nazis use it, there exist no genocides?
No one said it does. Either you’re still missing the point or you’re intentionally straw manning.
Edit to add: As to whether the genocide claim holds water, I covered that separately in the “Previously” of the same comment above, as well as elsewhere before[1][2][3][4]. The burden of proof isn’t on genocide deniers but genocide accusers, which is why I say that it isn’t a “cheat code,” as the absurd allegations of South African “white genocide” show.
