jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.
Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Nutomic and Dessalines may be tankies, but they’re our tankies
They may be your tankis, but they sure arent our tankies.
They can fuck right off
This is so stupid. Did everyone stop using ballpoint pens because the inventor was a nazi? No.
Ballpoint pens don’t spread nazi propaganda. I don’t know where you thought this was going.
Have you used a pen before? They definitely can spread propaganda…
Well, at least pens don’t have a proprietary algorithm by said nazi to make it not function when you want to write something that is not nazi propaganda, unlike things like Twitter, where the far-right is being boosted.

Don’t give them ideas.
Their claims regarding privacy are really not surprising, it’s very on-brand for the developer’s ideology to eliminate transparency for users in the platform while keeping everything stored and federated in the back end for the ruling elite, which if and when they decide to, become the arbiters of who can and won’t see it. They haven’t even bothered to provide any form of recourse to contest it, you basically have to go looking for people yourself. At least until mod member lists are made private too.
I fully agree with their decision, Lemmy is transient at best.
They could still include Mbin, but why include a loaded deck?Actually, decided to check, yep, they did, kudos to them, they really did think it through.
Downvote all you want, still ain’t gonna change that jointhefediverse.net decision (based as fuck) 😂
