It must be hard for the Tankies that developed Lemmy that most users dislike their communities.

It’s a shame that a regressive and thoughtless fringe ideology is attached to the project.

But make no mistake, Tankies didn’t invent federated social media or ActivityPub, they wrote a single piece of software. If it wasn’t Lemmy, it would be Kbin or some other project.

If the Tankies keep it up, they might find their software doesn’t get much funding or community attention, so there’s no reason to convince yourself that this place will continue to exist as a Lemmy-centric network.
