Why cancel lemmy? it ain't perfect, but it's not a bad platform.
i just say feel free to block the triad of tankies instances, i imagine the complaints are come from there.
Some people for some reason want to cancel or boycott lemmy as a software because they think it'll hurt the Devs, which is stupid because this is open source software. Not only do the Devs get nothing from people using it without donating but they can't stop people from using it either, and since it's opensource, they can't stop people from modding/forking it either. This whole movement to cancel Lemmy is just reactionary garbage.
Reactionary to what?
It is reactionary to want to cancel an open source project or codebase based on grievances with a particular person or their opinions.
Unrelated, but happy cake day
Oh thanks, I think that's the first time someone's said it to me on Lemmy. Which is weird since I've had multiple others before. This account is two years old, and I have other accounts too.
