The lemmygrad and hexbear mods getting paid, how capitalistic of them.

They belong(ed) to the german royal house "Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha" and changed their name to "Windsor" after WW1 to not be affiliated with germany anymore. I don't know if that's enough to call them foreign though.
Opinion of one of the admins regarding hexbear, just so you guys know where they stand:
In my view, the hexbear community is actually a positive force on this platform. They are frequently abrasive, but they ultimately have the potential to contribute to what we are building here. They are extremely active and some of them are quite intelligent. But they've also become accustomed to a privileged position on their own walled-in platform, and they need to be reminded that their views are considered ver extreme by the average person.
Looks like he took the letters off and put them back on. Originally the lettering has a way tighter spacing.
How human of them.
Especially because Steve said "auctioned" and not "sold". Nice strawman, same as his "bad journalism" take. It only leads the discussion away from the allegations.
I'm on a german instance (feddit.de) and it's federated with db0.
I think it's just lemmy.world bullshit.
Has anyone read their post about their downtime?
"We shouldn't close registration or limit the amount of communities because we're not even the biggest instance in the fediverse"
Like, what?! The argument was always that they are the biggest in Lemmy! It felt like they were trying to gaslight the users.
Same as the other arguments, like new users being weirded out if they can't register to lemmy.world or apps using them as default. So them being down all the time doesn't matter? Or that lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and closed down registration and new users registered to other instances without a problem?
I'm really weirded out how hard they try to be the "main" thing on Lemmy.
But you can't base a fact on one accident. Or even multiple. What if newspapers like to write especially about Tesla accidents to generate clicks?
Teslas seemingly have a lot of accidents, but without checking the statistics and comparing it to other manufacturers you wouldn't really know if the perceived truth is a fact or not.
You made the first comment: "Teslas aren't safe", without providing proof.
And now you're calling someone a hypocrite because he asks for data of exactly what you claimed, while you're redefining your first argument as "the contrary".
So, do you have proof that Tesla's aren't safe in comparison to other cars, or is it just your opinion?
