Too bad it's made by someone who promotes 'great replacement' theory and stands with fascists.
Lemmy isn't much better.
Edit: If people don't know what I'm referring to, this comment sums it up well.
But on Lemmy I can block the devs and all of .ml
That’s user choice baby
On Ladybird, you can block yourself from supporting the devs
There is the part where moderation tools seem almost intentionally left out. This place is almost as open to manipulation as 4chan.
Remember when 4chan used to be progressive, libertarian, (uh, and racist)?
If it ever was, it had to have happened sometime in the middle of its existence, cuz it sure as hell wasn't that when it launched and sure as hell isn't that now.
This is whataboutery.
Multiple things can be shitty at the same time though...
Everything is shitty, just different shades. 50 shades of shit.
How? You're denigrating a product made by a fascist on a product made by a fascist.
One of the reasons I switched to a PieFed server. I've been happy with the switch though, it feels generally smoother in my browser as well. That's the beauty of the Fediverse. Even on a whole different platform, I'm still able to participate in this discussion hosted on a Lemmy server.
What are you talking about? Any links?
I'm not disagreeing, I just haven't heard this about Lemmy yet
.ml is a tankie instance. The main Lemmy dev is an admin on there, and is definitely a tankie.
His username is also a fascist dictator, iirc.
Eh, it's more complicated, it's a Haitian revolutionary and the first emperor of Haiti post-revolution. (Functionally a dictatorship)
He killed most of the remaining colonists, enforced plantation labor, and was overthrown after like 2-3 years, but a lot of haiti now remembers him mostly for abolishing slavery and there's a lot of revisionism or justification for his worse acts.
So like its hard to know what someone who likes him knows / thinks about him.
"abolished slavery", "enforced plantation labor"
uh... this really sounds like one of those "pick one" moments.
So what alternative do you suggest?
Zen Browser, open source Firefox fork
Just got it on play store, there's an ad everytime I open it?
Zen Browser is not even on Android. The one in the Play Store is not what they're talking about.
Thanks for clarifying. As much as I love open source, I'll still want something that can offer a similar experience on both desktop and mobile. For anyone else like me, I'd suggest Waterfox.
I suggest IronFox
Holy hell. I knew about the gender neutral pronouns debacle. Didn't know there are more..
Are we supposed to only use products and services from people whom we agree with completely on their full set of personal beliefs?
I hate to be the one to tell you this. If you mostly agree with a fascist, maybe that's a sign of something. And yes, shaming fascists is in fact, a good thing.
No, but why get behind a fascist sympathiser when a better project exists: servo.org.
Moving to a technically better project is a no brainer
This is a pretty gnarly one to just ignore.
Yeah, great replacement isnt an "Oh well, let's just agree to disagree" type of thing.
I have this person tagged as a fascist so...this tracks
Mobile app? I don't see a tag option on my desktop. I'm pretty sure I used to tag people a lot when I used that other site.
Just a bit of fascism, as a treat?
When it concerns fascism? How the fuck do you even dare to ask that question?
Your comment got me thinking deeply 😮😮😮
