They seem like generally reasonable people on a personal level but they do a lot of apologism of awful regimes under the typical guise of “just asking questions” and “free speech” and frankly I have no patience left for that kind of garbage.
I wish people appreciated lemmy more than mastodon
They probably do, but that just means that they hate Mastodon and have never heard of Lemmy.
As long as we’re throwing fediverse wishlist items out there, I wish the Lemmy core developers/founders didn’t have such gross political views.
Which are? A link to a story or something will suffice.

Yeah

One person’s gross is another person’s based.
