Like y’all keep posting about it, praising it, giving it free advertisement, and what not.

But the dev is a fascist, the discord server is a fascist bar, and the project thus is fascist.

I’ve met people who were harassed, I browsed through now deleted messages of Vaxry using slurrs and more.

So I wonder is if the people who post constantly about it know and are complicit, or just don’t know and would act otherwise?

It gets tiring to see the project be given “fame” when I know the roots of the plants are founded in toxicity & abuse.

    what os are you going to use on your smartphone if you remove software from google and apple?

    aosp, fdroid, no gservices

    what VR headset

    not into vr so can’t say

    what telecom

    sadly, not a good one. i wish i had a choice, but this isn’t software

    are you only shopping in local food markets?

    sort of? i get fresh stuff from actual markets when i can and when i go for groceries i avoid ultra processed stuff from big multinationals, making sure of the provenance and the maker of the stuff i get, supermarkets also sell stuff from local producers

    lemmy creators are bigots

    eh, im still leeching off some other person hosting, im not going to host lemmy and im slowly making my own thing

    also can you provide examples? i heard it multiple times, I’m not contesting it, just kinda want to see myself, like with vaxry, and not only trust second hand accusations

    i don’t want to be a cop and background check

    no absolutely fine i don’t check all my software too, but when i hear a callout i dont hide behind “art and artist” mentality and move off the bigot’s stuff

      While aosp with microg is a step into the right direction, it’s not Google free. Most android code is made by Google and streamed to aosp.

      So you think people must only use software made by nice guys but you can use hardware, services, books, movies, etc. from whoever? What makes software so special?

      You’re not hosting a lemmy instance but here we adding content, and therefore value, to the platform. I don’t host hyprland either, I am leeching off the entire devs work for zero dollars. Does that make it okay now?

      I give more importance to qualities like open source, safety, privacy and performance other than who supports trump or not.
