    And then we have the communists making Lemmy. Is there any moderate developers lol. Valve is the only big company I can think of that isn’t annoying. All the faceless Linux devs are good too

      Give some credit. Even if they aren’t politically aligned with your, they did make Lemmy open source for others to run with.

      Glances at the child gambling enabled by the steam marketplace, an issue being blatantly ignored by Valve leadership.

      Buddy, I don’t know how to tell you this. I love Valve for all the good they do, but they got some serious skeletons, too.

      Valve representatives were asked point blank if the third party gambling sites have a positive influence on their bottom line, and the dude replying sweated bullets for several seconds before nervously going “we… don’t have any data on that” while the rest stared daggers at him.

      Coffeezilla has a recent video on the situation.

      If it’s between fascism and communism, the answer is pretty fucking simple imo. Only one of those ideologies considers all people to be equal.

      And no, I am not a communist, and I would not choose communism unless it was the only alternative to fascism.

        Totally understand what you’re saying. Obviously I am on Lemmy. Just wish we didn’t have ideologies in our face all the time

        I have a bigger fear of what happens to Linux when Torvalds retires. He took a break a while back, and it was an absolute shit show of a power struggle.
