TLDR but I think I get the gist.
I know that lemmy devs are commies, doesn't bother me. The idea that some technologies can or should be used only by some political factions is just dumb. I left reddit after the api changes because I'm not installing proprietary spyware on my phone. I also like the idea of a decentralized, community run social platform, ideally nostr based because I like the way nostr federation works better than the fediverse, where the user can choose which relays to connect to instead of their instance making that decision for them, but until there is a viable alternative with a larger community I'm here.
