This really isn't about what they believe in, but their activities to push it on everyone else. This isn't a case of someone discovering dessalines separately maintained personal politics blog or something, in that sort of scenario, I wouldn't have a problem with it.
The problem stems from how they continue to manage the "flagship" instance. They can say it's not or that it's "just a test server" or that it's just randomly recommended like any other instance, but that does not change what people see it as especially since they run official development comms and official support comms from it.
I've seen it before: "I went to check out Lemmy and went on the official developer instance lemmy.ml but it seemed to just be a bunch of tankies so I left"
Hm I see your point now, thanks for explaining.
I still think it's their prerogative to use the instance they prefer for discussing development since they're the ones doing it, and that's the instance they host themselves.
Also wondering, where is lemmy.ml advertised as a flagship instance? join-lemmy.org doesn't seem to be partial to it.
