Lemmy core devs have started work on a new front end using leptos (lemmy.ml)

Quoting the author

I’ve starting working on a lemmy front end called lemmy-ui-leptos using leptos, a Rust UI framework with isomorphic support, and tailwind + daisyUI for the component styling. This could eventually replace the frankenstein’s monster that lemmy-ui has become.

Imagine if we did this for large companies owned by billionaires. Why is nobody talking about a board of director (Thiel) from Meta literally being one of the top donors for the republicans, supporting many of those congressional candidates that claimed there was voter fraud going on in 2020.

Perhaps we should flock back to Reddit instead, partly owned by a Chinese company. Who also support Russia and deny human rights violations.

Or why not head over to Twitter owned by the worlds richest man using it as is very own playground, supporting Trump and DeSantis, censoring Turkish dissidents and journalists writing about him in negative light.

I will take "What is a good example of Whataboutism?" for $400, Alex.

So.... That's an overly simplistic view of the situation. Remember, there's also the fallacy fallacy, which states that just because someone commits a fallacy doesn't mean they are wrong. Whataboutism isn't just a fallacy, you can use it to see your own inconsistencies and hypocrisies.

What he's saying is that Reddit isn't any better, Billionaries are terrible and own everything, and all platforms censor. Open source/decentralization is the best alternative, no matter who the devs are. Is Lemmy so much worse than other platforms? Or even... bad at all?

Statement: Lemmy is bad because the developers are ML and support CCP Response: Reddit is bad because its partly owned by a Chinese company ->Whataboutism!!!<- Or... simply understand that just because X developers have an opinion you don't agree with, or a platform is owned by someone you don't agree with, you can still engage on that platform for various reasons...
