I discovered about Lemmy and Piefed devs opinions and views which i not agree with¹, so i was thinking of using Mbin², i looked in to join mbin website and idk what to choose, there is a big instance which i want to avoid³ and idk if the smaller ones are stable, any suggestion?

1 Piefed is also made with Python which isn't the fastest language and i hate reading python codebases lmao

2 Please don't tell me that the devs are nazis or smth 😭

3 joining a big instance kinda defeat the purpose of the fediverse tbh

Perchance

The Lemmy devs are pretty good at keeping their politics out of the codebase

For now, we are all human and start to do malevolent shit for politics at any time

Edit: i also don't want to support someone with such ideas

The source code is open and they are highly dependent on funding from users and NLNet. Lemmy's API is easy to replicate, so even if it's not so easy to say "just fork it", it would be pretty straightforward to have other projects implementing compatibility layers.

Considering we have seen the Tesseract and Piefed gone fell to less honourable ends in a much faster fashion, the Lemmy devs are pretty much modern saints in comparison. They've sorta-deserved the wait-out.
