I read an old thread documenting the opinions of Lemmy maintainers an the .ml instance. The issue of funding a project with people openly expressing opinions many find distasteful and it being the biggest reddit alternative on the fediverse came up, so here's a topic to discuss it.

What should we do? What are the options?

Answer: No fork necessary, there are Piefed and Mbin.

The main advantage of fediverse over, let's say X, is that you can change server if you find owner not trustworthy. So just do it, it's exactly why it was designed in this way, to let you do it easily.

But talking about funding... I might indeed reconsider doing this...
