Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development

I do not agree with their political view etc. but I can see that the development of Lemmy is a net positive.
Shutting down .ml won’t save them much money, it doesn’t cost much to run a instance, developing software instead of having a tech job on the other hand…

People will be more willing to give them money if they shut down lemmy.ml

I’ve sure people would also be more willing to give money of they were Vegan.
By being overly critical of our allies we damage our movement.

Dessalines is vegan, for what it’s worth. Gave me a few good recipes for seitan!

Drag hopes their financial system becomes desperate enough, and enough people say it’s about lemmy.ml, that they realise they have little choice but to take lemmy.ml offline. If that happened, they would still be able to develop for Lemmy full time, and the tankie nonsense would be gone. Everyone wins.
If they would rather get jobs and stop working on Lemmy than take lemmy.ml offline, then drag’s none too pleased with their priorities and is comfortable enough with seeing them go. Someone will fork the software and keep working on it.

The goal is becoming clear. Western-supremacist redditors will not tolerate any communist-friendly spaces on the internet that oppose US foreign policy goals. They can shut our communities down and kick them off reddit, but doing the same on the fediverse is proving difficult. Censorship and anti-communist witch-hunting is their life goal.
For the record, I would never wish starvation on anyone, regardless of ideology. No one should have to be in a “desperate financial situation”, regardless of who they are and what they believe.

Talked like a first-world-ocrat. You think hardcore communism is only an online phenomenon?
