if they want they can fork lemmy and do their own thing. heck who tf cares if lemmy has a communist dev, you can selfhost it ffs. no one fucking cares.

Communists existing makes people very mad because it gives them cognitive dissonance. It's basically the same thing as vegans existing.

Let's ask the Reddit admins about their views and get that in public

The design of social software is never apolitical and problems with many open source projects boil down to liberal misconceptions about how governance of their project needed to work. The devs being communists is cool and good.

They’re literally getting pissy because the devs won’t build a block of hexbear into the software itself. Great liberal values. (And an incredibly poor understanding of how FOSS development works.)

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
