    Nutomic’s transphobia and downplay of COVID are deplorable

    And pedophilia apology, I forgot that one initially (was bookmarked on an account which I thought I had deleted). This shithead doesn’t reflect well on Dessalines.

    And about the rest… Damn, even in isolation it’s complete bullshit. Wouldn’t have thought that someone whose server displays a “Rational Discourse Toolkit” insert would have fallen for that.

    So, back to Mbin it is. You don’t have dirt on Melroy now, do you 😓 ?

      That comment is deleted, did you actually read it? If you check the modlog you will see that I didnt defend CSAM at all, but was only defending another user. Just to make it clear for you, I am against pedophilia. Its honestly impressive, you dont know me at all you try to paint me as some kind of evil supervillain over a few misinterpreted comments.

      I don’t have any dirt on Melroy, no, but I’d say just use Lemmy. For all of Nutomic’s personal faults, unlike PieFed they don’t make it to the code, and you can spin up or join an instance entirely unaffiliated with Nutomic if you wish. Most Lemmy.ml users find Nutomic’s views deplorable too, most of us are communists.

        I know, I’ve been on lemmy for the past 6 years. But I can’t just overlook that swollen pimple and still use the sofware while there’s alternatives that are maintained by people who, to my knowledge, don’t have such disgusting views.

          I’m not certain about Melroy, so I can’t say, but Lemmy itself does not have those views, nor does every instance (in fact, most do not).

            You might have misunderstood what I was getting at 😅. I wasn’t thinking about servers or admins, but about the person/people behind the project. That’s whose views I can’t overlook.

              I’m aware. As far as I know, Dessalines does not share those views at all, nor do the other contributors to Lemmy. Rimu is the lead developer of PieFed, and the largest PieFed instances are generally ones that align more closely with Lemmy.world style views, ie anti-communism and liberal Zionism.

                I sure hope so! The problem is, even though anti-bigotry is a part of Lemmy’s code of conduct, and the first rule of Lemmy.ml, he never addressed the noisiest of the issues with Nutomic, i.e., his transphobia…

                PieFed instances are generally ones that align more closely with Lemmy.world style views

                To be fair, since the grand Reddit exodus, it’s the same on Lemmy if you exclude the troika (like damn, people, stop with the “triad” shit! “Troika” is just the superior term).

                  I don’t disagree with your concern, but given that options are essentially PieFed, Reddit, or Lemmy (with a tiny bit on mbin), Lemmy is the best of the bunch. The devs are communists, which contributes to why Lemmy overall is a lot more left. I’m also more willing to bet Nutomic comes to better social views over time, as has historically been common for communists (including Castro), than I am for Rimu.

                  As for the “troika,” I’m aware that Lemmy.world is the biggest instance and that several others that are active are aligned, but on PieFed it’s far more skewed at the moment.
