    what if they are turned out to be like this or hate other set of people? lemmy by design is defederated so even if the devs are like this, you can just simply call out them or leave their lemmy server lol. i am sure there are trans friendly lemmy servers out here.

    as long as lemmy by design is against any sorta people, you dont have to boycott it.

      Yeah lets ignore the lead dev’s opinions on stuff its not like they have power over the project and a big number of users on their server.

      Its ironic you say this from the ani.social instance which was previously defederated from ml because the lead devs thinks all anime is degenerate or something like that and it ruined the anime community since ani.social was still too small

      Maybe you need the context of all the transphobic shit that’s happened lately, like the Olympics boxing stuff? Idk, it still seems transphobic without context. No clue who this guy is though

    Next time someone asks me what Lemmy’s like, I’ll just refer them to this post.

    “And see? That’s my comment down here with the gif.”

    The developer is expressing their opinion on their instance using their software. The beauty of federation and the software he has crrated is that you can build a community that you want.you never have to interact with or his instance.

    This post is drama for the sake of drama.

      He receives thousands of dollars in donations to make the software. I’d rathe people start supporting software developers made by non bigots

        It’s a weird place to draw the line. You probably use all kinds of products with scumbag companies and owners yet you draw the line at a guy’s Foss project which has nothing to do with his views and the project barely makes min wage yet serves tens of thousands of people.

        You don’t need to withdraw your support because you already do nothing to support. Again I think you are creating drama for the sake of drama. The guy is an open Communist and you are shocked that he’s transphobic.
