That's one of the major reasons I rejected lemmy as an option for what we're doing on goldandblack.xyz. The software is too politicized, it's too edgy teenager, it tries too hard to be rebellious. The forum software you use shouldn't be a virtue signal.
Comment on Greetings to the new users! Feel free to ask questions.
realcaseyrollins 3 years agoInteresting! I've gotten the impression that Lemmy federates quite well. Of course, it doesn't federate has well as lotide does.
But yes, long-term, Lotide's neutral nature makes it a far more likely long-term Fediverse platform than Lemmy.

Lemmy only works with other instances of the lemmyverse currently.

Posts actually federate on Mastodon and Pleroma! See this as an example:

The problem is, we can't follow Lemmy users outside of Lemmy.
