Ah, drama I'm not chronically online enough to understand.
Lemmy is a reddit-style forum framework on the fediverse. People clone a copy and launch their own instances which can communicate with each other, so that no one person can rule over it.
So theres these guys who want China to win a nuclear war and the enslavement of trans people into labor camps, Lemmy ML and Hexbear. They are the Lemmy Developers and all money for lemmy development goes to them.
Then theres this Rimu dude who started development of PieFed which is just another framework to do the same exact thing that Lemmy does and they communicate with each other flawlessly, which makes the Tankies super duper angry because they wanted you to fund their autocratic ideology and help them spread propaganda.
The reason so many people are so involved in this is that you're either on a Lemmy based instance or a PieFed based instance, so this does directly impact everyone here reading this.
incorrect: my instance is just the admin manually reading and outputting bits furiously, like the telegraph operator in Lucky Luke
Ohhh shit, thanks for updating me on the whole situation. Guess I'll have to take a look at Lemmy and PieFed, and their devs, and see where I want to stand lol
Don't you understand, the Fediverse is serious business!
Apparently there was an argument that resulted in piefed mods banning all leftists instances, including myself...
Ah, so basically the same problem there is on Reddit with power-tripping mods that manage several subreddits.
At least it's federated so being banned in one instance and its communities doesn't keep you from joining or making similar communities in your own instance, or joining a different instance
