Guess where? Unironically r/Save3rdPartyApps

The Reddit search for Lemmy also gives these privacy copy-pasta as top results when searching for Lemmy. I’m still betting that Reddit employees are involved in boosting these posts.

      yes, I mean derivatives of those “softwares”–is that the right term? I mean, lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, lemmy.one for examples are servers / instances, but they’re in the same “family”, which is Lemmy. Same thing with kbin, there are kbin.social, karab.in, forum.fail are the instances of the same kbin “family”

      for now I see that link aggregator & discussion model (reddit-like) “software” is Lemmy and Kbin

      I wonder if there are other softwares beside those two. Though for now I think it’s… sufficient ? if the reddit post discredit lemmy, then do they provide the way to kbin instead? if not, does it matter if the admin or dev of main lemmy software and instance have differing views in life? would it affect the other lemmy servers as well?

      in other words, can the main lemmy devs affect the other instances / servers due to their problematic worldview ? or will it be contained to the servers that they maintain ? How much “independence” do each of these servers have ?
