              Lemmygrad is a radical left communist instance. That’s is not a lot of people’s cup of tea

              Edit: while the above is true, and I’ve heard the link between the admins and the instance mentioned a few times in Mastodon. I have not been able to corroborate it myself.

                  The good thing is since it’s federated and open source, we can just make our own instances without them and block them. The bad thing is since they have the biggest instance (lemmy.ml) because, well, they made it and pioneered it, it’s unlikely we’ll want that or them blocked.

                  I think this is one of the reasons why many ppl are pushing to join Kbin instead since it’s a bit more separated from the “overlords” than lemmy. I don’t really know a solution yet to this problem, let’s keep exploring.

              they’re heavily pro-Russia and pro-China, remove comments criticizing violation of human rights by China, and use phrases like “Ukrainian invasion” and downvote people who say that hey, it’s Russia who’s the bully.
