Anything I can read about the Lemmy drama?

Honestly, I'm not sure. I keep seeing people talk about "political views of the lead dev," and I see this a LOT, but no one has stepped up to actually explain what they're talking about. If you find it, I'd appreciate a link or something. I'm sure it's there, I'm just too lazy to go digging.

I’ve only seen it mentioned a few places, but I saw people complaining about Lemmy in general being too leftist / communist. I don’t know if that’s true, and I don’t think it matters either way, but that’s the “drama” that I’ve seen.

Seems to be people upset about non-mainstream takes on the Russia/Ukraine war and China Uyghur stuff from what I've seen.

I'm sure they were equally concerned and principled when it came to the political views of the Reddit admins.

Thank you - I didn't see that coming and it's downright hilarious!

Thanks. There was some good discussion there and highlights why a public modlog is very important to evaluate the health of any Lemmy instance.
