Don't know what the exact cause was/is for this big surge - but I am glad to see it. No matter what personal problems people may have with the main devs, they are doing great work on the platform.

Also of interest, since this is a good place to plug things, other threadiverse things:

And I couldn't find a way to donate to mbin, in lieu of that:

The fact that that was my first thought is the reason I will be touching grass for the remainder of the day.

Yeah because the genocidal tankie scum begged for contributions after a lot of us started boycotting them and lemmy ml.

The day you make something useful like those "genocidal tankie scum", I'll contribute to you too.

Make something better that people want to use or shut up.

Okay "leftist"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Awesome.

I have a monthly contribution set up. Subscribing is way better than dealing with ads.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You shouldn't pay those tankies imo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yea we heard , so please fuck off now? Reddit is a perfect utopia for you.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

You fit in better there. Heck I bet you would really dig Instagram.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Not really i fit perfectly at a communist Foss project. You are the one with the issue so why dont you leave?
