MODERATORS
 

I've been trying to make people aware of Lemmy on discord and Mastodon, but it's always met with resistance citing "the devs are pro authoritarianism tankies." Kbin seems to be picking up steam because of the developer baggage.

Do you feel like this negative perception will hamstring Lemmy's growth?

It is a very large instance though with different communities. It is more of a technical slog though, barely works.

This, their moderation practices have been noticeable enough that they're scaring users away with their blatant support of historically fascist regimes

Oh, this is not good. Now, I might need to pay more attention to this. I was just getting sort of settled into Lemmy, as well.

Using Lemmy is fine, don't be afraid to use Lemmy. We're just talking about how lemmy.ml's practices affect Lemmy's reputation.
