    It’s okay, they are a measured and non-violent individual that just wants Lemmy to be friendly for the “normies.”

    They’re a good guy™︎!

      so true

      I have received a constant stream of harassing messages, death threats, and threats of doxxing over DM, Matrix, Github, and Codeberg. All of it instigated and eggged on by another instance’s top admin.

      you’re the good guys wooooooo!

      go fediverse!!
