This will come as no surprise to any one given they are a .ml account, but now that they are attempting to discourage people from voting, they revealed their true face.

Edit: only now seeing they also post links to x.com still. I liked their content because I am anti genocide too, but it’s clear there’s a big the_donald vibe there.

    The problem is the lingering Lemmy.ml federation. Because the actual developers of Lemmy own Lemmy.ml it gives it some legitimacy as opposed to the other tankie cesspits.

    There are other software’s like piefed and mbin being developed that have tools which allow Admins to provide a more curated experience so new users dont sign up and have the first post be “all Americans deserve to die for voting for Joe biden”.

    As the fediverse grows normal people will push out extremists. Early reddit was full of extreme reddit content.

      Yep, except here the MAU numbers are dropping every month, and we’re not going to make it with this high level of infighting this early on. I hope I’m proven wrong, and I’m working every day here to have that not be the case, but the MAU stats this year are really discouraging, doubly so now that I’ve discovered lemmy.ml was the_donald.ml all along.

        MAU has been steady for 2 years which is pretty good. If you include nodeBB its grown. I think its hard to break out and reach new users but they can be retained.

          Ok, last numbers I saw we were only stay somewhat flat and that was mostly because of an influx of nsfw content.

          I’d say flatlining in a world where centralised monopolistic social media networks are now clearly aligned with fascism inside an internet which is still growing in size, is not all that great. We’re on our way to becoming the floating flotilla of outcasts, but I hope your optimism will turn out to be justified.
