MODERATORS
It's interesting that in your previous month-old comment you mentioned "a paraphrased and reinterpreted (in bad faith) piece of a comment" from the CEO, which confused me, because the Mastodon thread also includes the content of a comment the CEO tried to scrub.
But you did write this gem:
...appeal to ethnicity is pretty funny
That is not what Ethnicity is.
We are talking about the same thread, right?

This one.
There is no comment that the "CEO tried to scrub". There is only a discord screenshot of a meta-conversation about the fact that the user claimed their comment was deleted, and the CEO answers that nothing was deleted to avoid this very same accusation, and then says he will delete this (the meta) thread (because it's off-topic).
Not sure what you find funny though, however,
referred to:
Which is completely arbitrary. Even wanting to read the comment of the CEO with malice, he said "politics".
This has nothing to do with ethnicity, it has to do with words and meaning. Calling someone a fascist for such matter is completely bananas and - frankly - disrespectful towards the people who died fighting the actual fascism. The CEO can be an idiot, or a tech bro, but he expressed his views and let others express theirs. This is pretty evident from their forum.
Oops. I was looking a few comments up in this very Lemmy thread, somebody linked to this other Lemmy thread.
I do think it is super important to discuss whether a tech bro is just making a quick cash grab product in order to get bought out by a larger corporation, though. As seen with the Skiff tech bros.
Yeah, that thread linked (https://lemm.ee/comment/8016834) references the same Mastodon thread. I know because I followed all of this few months back.
Oh yeah, this is definitely interesting, but...while email is somewhat binding as a service, a search engine is not. Give me 2 minutes and I have changed the default search engine on all my devices away from Kagi. If that will be the case (despite the fact that so far, I have no reason to think it is the case), it will be super easy to move away. I think if I were a Skiff customer without a custom domain, I would still be crying instead.
