and it’s substantially better. Far less laggy. Lemmy.ml is literally unusable anymore. Thanks for making this instance so awesome!

        What I really cannot get my head around is that they seem to put 2023 China and Russia on that list. Russia is a straight up Christo-fascist state, it’s as far as is possible to go from a communist state. But I guess they’re in it for the authoritarianism rather than for the political ideology.

          Because Tankies are no better than conservative reactionaries - they don’t have any real ideology besides being against whatever the West supports.

        So I’m confused. Some Lemmy.ml users are upset because of what? That the Lemmy software is written by people in China? Or that the Lemmy.ml mods are pro-China? Or what? Is this a topic for the explainlikeimfive sublem (community)?

          Lemmy.ml is the main lemmy instance, run by the lemmy developers. Lemmy developers happen to also be tankies, who deny genocides/atrocities committed by communist states and support authoritarian communism.
