Not openly or outright. Potentially not at all, but he is loved by Nazis.
Just one example of Nazis and terrible people liking him, was a terrorist who live streamed his attack on a couple mosques in NZ and during the attack he said to "subscribe to PewDiePie" amongst other things.
Fun fact for those who are interested; this is a reference to a Stock photo series about bullying, that has a fair bit of sexual tension. Especially when you see that in the rest of the set, they all took turns being "bullied".
Here's the one where the girl in the background is the one being "bullied".
Here's the one where the girl on the left is being "bullied".
Finally, here they are being besties.
The real issue is that every single application requires you to provide a CV and cover letter, only to then make you re-enter all of the info from those into their likely terrible hiring software that will force you to sign up. Then the majority ghost you.
So yeah, while I agree it's not worth writing a custom cover letter for every job, I'd say CVs are worse. As you are pretty much forced to anyway as you re-enter everything over and over despite providing a copy of your CV.
I read it more along the lines of the one on the left is the coding transgirl stereotype and the one on the right was the artist transgirl stereotype.
I think a big part of the hate came from the fact that the developer was charging for a premium version. Lemmy is all about open source, power to the people kind of things, so I imagine this rubbed people up the wrong way. Plus it was a fairly popular reddit app, and people were hating on the reddit refugees as well.
I use sync and I used it when it was a reddit app. It was funny to join Lemmy while hating on sync was trendy.
That would probably explain why they love him.
