I haven’t checked Lemmy for a long time but I wanna get off Reddit again, yet I still need to know how many users are on here. Which lemmy instances are suitable to me, the most popular, and which ones to avoid? For context, im queer, anarchist with DemSoc leaning, and environmentalist. Is there a comprehensive list of all the instances and their main functions? Is the instance I’m on still workable? Any feedback would help, thx. <3

    We didn’t want to be lending any form of support to developers who deny genocide and promote transphobia.

    So we found a more ethical solution and than it turns out the developers are fucking amazing and it’s progressing so fast that it’s leaving Lemmy in the dust. Many people are now moving because it’s offering features and improvements that the Lemmy devs refused to.

          Wait, THIS is what people are talking about when they say the devs are transphobic?

          The dev admitting he said stupid shit in private, supports human rights for everyone, and his personal views should have nothing to do with his work?

          Yes, I know that’s all you’ve got as far as lemmy.ml promoting transphobia goes.

            You are making this about Lemmy.ml to change the subject from this being about the Lemmy devs themselves. You like to deflect a lot I’ve noticed.

              Don’t argue with idiots. It’s never worth it.

              For which you have precisely the same “evidence,” no more, no less.

                I keep telling you .ml chuds — stop talking when your masters aren’t in the room. Cowbee isn’t here to argue or moderate for you, go back to your pen.

                  cowbee doesn’t even moderate anything aside from a single theory comm on hexbear

                  [I literally had your people calling me a bigot for saying that being transgender is, ideally, a temporary state.

                  The implication being they finish transitioning and end up whatever.

                  I was literally called a bigot for accepting trans people in my own way. ](https://sh.itjust.works/post/5296079/3376594 )

                  you deserved to be banned for transphobia

                    No, actually — I’ve shared this exact discussion with my trans friends. They all think you’re insane. Soon Lemmy will be dead and most people will be using Piefed. I’m planning on switching soon, specifically because of you demented cultists. Fuck the devs of this dogshit platform, and fuck you for being a genocide denier.

                    Why should I give a shit about differentiating between the cultists?

                    You are all equally trash.
