it’s not just the Grad unfortunately. lemmy will never be a legitimate thing when in general such extremist fascism is not only tolerated, but encouraged (and even questioning or disagreeing politely leads to instance and community bans). I don’t even know why I bother coming to check sometimes when all I see is such extreme hate (at least hate larping)
that’s exactly why Lemmy is destined to fail. They had so many users when Reddit fell apart, but then the dumbass tankie devs started booting and insulting all of the reddit users
Mention lemmy now outside of Lemmy and it’s handwaved ‘filled with bigots’

At least mastadon is still going strong
There are actual instances with rules like “no tankie shit” that actively host and promote tankie content. Like wut?
If a form of Lemmy grows beyond what it is now, it will likely be a tighter federation and have admins come together to fork the Lemmy codebase.
