Some will cheer, some will be mildly disappointed. But I’m out, I think.

    I think that’s less the developer of Piefed than the users on Lemmy who cannot abide their political differences with the Lemmy devs.

    The hostile takeover before piefed I remember was the failed forced migration of 196 from Blahaj to .world. And that was by a gaggle of transphobes who ultimately opposed Blahaj’s zero tolerance policy on transphobia. Those transphobes have considered Blahaj to be a tankie instance and all of Lemmy to be tankie since.

    And those folks were early adopters of Piefed and were very vocal about it.

      This is wrong on a lot of levels, it’s hard to begin where.

      … it’s astounding that you think the original 196 mod team, which was comprised primarily of trans folk, left Blahaj because they were transphobes.
