Lol why are people here on lemmy so obsessed with classes?
Lemmy is a FOSS answer to the failings of Capitalist Reddit. Everyone who doesn't care enough is on Reddit, leaving Lemmy with tons of leftists who do care enough.
There's also Linux, Privacy, and other FOSS things, but FOSS in general aligns with leftist views.
FOSS also aligns with free market capitalist views.
I'm not here because Reddit is capitalist, I'm here because Reddit sucks. I don't like new Reddit or the Reddit app, and I certainly don't like the tracking they do. Lemmy seems to be the closest alternative and is good enough, so I'm here.
I consider myself libertarian (not US libertarian party, but ideologically libertarian, like Penn Jillette) and I've been a FOSS enthusiast for decades. I contribute to FOSS because I enjoy it and honestly think FOSS projects work better than their alternatives. I don't do it out if some social obligation or whatever, I do it because it just seems to work better. I disagree politically with the creators of this project, yet I've contributed code and enjoy the work they've done.
Just an alternative perspective.
I am sorry for you.
