I’ve been trying to make people aware of Lemmy on discord and Mastodon, but it’s always met with resistance citing “the devs are pro authoritarianism tankies.” Kbin seems to be picking up steam because of the developer baggage.

Do you feel like this negative perception will hamstring Lemmy’s growth?

    No I never implied that at all

    Emphasis mine

    It originally was used to describe Leftists supporting authoritarianism while claiming to be leftist.

    Get out of here with that bad faith nonsense
