I just meant like I thought this was the main lemmy project or something or is this just the most popular/default instance? I thought these guys built the whole lemmy ecosystem
This became the most popular instance bc Lemmy’s devs run their own lemmy.ml instance with a strong tankie moderation angle, and many people don’t like that.
Lemmy.ml is the instance of the lemmy creators I believe
Is that not the instance everyone hates because of their toxic politics, or something? Does that also reflect the Lemmy creators?
I don’t follow the discourse myself, I just keep seeing people make derogatory references to it here and there.
Yup, the lemmy creators are straight up tankies.
I wasn’t necessarily endorsing it. Just pointing the fact out to avoid confusion.
