Since everyone is jumping to a “programming languages war” under the masquerade of ‘Lemmy vs. PieFed’ let me also point out that the people involved on each project is different… Weren’t some of the lemmy devs facist apologists? I don’t want to spread fake news, but this is an accusation I read more than once. Perhaps someone can share the source to these ideas… I havs interestest to know more
This depends on your definition of fascist. They are largely Stalin/Mao apologists and very heavy on current day CCP propaganda. This also means occasionally shilling for the Russian side in the Ukraine war. Oh yeah, and tiananmen square denial lmao.
Any way you look at it I think their politics are drastically incompatible with the idea of a website where English speakers can speak freely and create their own communities.
I don’t think I am allowed to answer this - I’ve had one comment removed already for trying to answer this question, citing rule 5, but you can read through those that were allowed to remain. The short answer though is yes.
