jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.

Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Nutomic and Dessalines may be tankies, but they're our tankies

Not wrong lol. I dislike their behavior but still contribute code to lemmy.

Same, I am very opposed to their views, but they make this platform, so I respect them as FOSS developers

And the day that something bad in general about the code can be said? That’s when developers fork. It means something different to us.

They may be your tankis, but they sure arent our tankies.

They can fuck right off

They are literally developing the platform we are on. Sure, I don't agree with their opinion at all, but it doesn't mean I can't respect their work.

Doing a pretty shit job at it.

I used to use reddit. Those devs made the same mistake, and I dont respect either.

Then develop it yourself.

Can you elaborate on what you mean?

Reddit was literally co-founded by Aaron Swartz (RIP): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz
