For all the dust kicked up, there’s not much more to it than that.

Some people don’t feel safe on lemmy.world. Some people haven’t felt safe on lemmy.world for a long time. In my view, lemmy.world is not, in general, a safe instance for LGBTQ people, people with pro-Palestinian views, and leftists who refuse to bend the knee to neoliberal impositions, amongst others. It’s basically trying to be Reddit 2.0.

Some people aren’t even federated with lemmy.world but were/are federated with Blahaj. Same reasons as above.

Some people see this as further centralization of the Fediverse. Because it is. Even if lemmy.world was otherwise perfect, we don’t need yet another huge community dependent on their servers and their people.

Fuck ALL advertisements. Yes, even “unobtrusive” ones, especially yours. If I want your shit, I will find you. If I appreciate your shit, I’ll pay you for your time. If you want to connect, I’m all ears. Otherwise, fuck off capitalists, fuck off advertisers, and fuck off useful idiots who want to waste my finite lifespan in this miserable universe showing me ads.
