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?
Post trump memes to change the perception?
I mean, Mastodon face similar stigma despite huge right wing Mastodon instances existing, and Mastodon the devs don’t seem to be nearly as bad as the admins and mods on lemmy.ml
Wish I could just block all politics, especially Americans’ politics.
