Lemmy isn’t the only Threadiverse server implementation, though it’s the most-widely used. There’s kbin, of which kbin.social is the largest instance, mbin, of which fedia.io is the largest example – and the user you’re talking to is on fedia.io – and some others.
Until you realize some of these long time users are likely sockpuppet accounts of said devs.
But I find it rather funny and in the end their political believes while themselves sitting right in the “imperial core” are harmless. Armchair tankies.
This is why I’ll personally never donate to the Lemmy devs. I could never bring myself to fund a tankie.

I’m glad we don’t use Lemmy, oh wait

Well you use it passively at least.
Although that also means you technically use Mastodon.

What a time to be alive.
How am I reading this comment then?

Mbin is IIRC a fork of kbin aimed at getting features in more-quickly.

Those guys are written in PHP.
There’s PieFed, which is in Python:

Oh, interesting! Thanks for enlightening me!

If you post a comment to a Lemmy instance, are you using Lemmy?

Hmm, probably not. If I was on a community based on mbin though, maybe?
I didn’t let that prevent me from using Lemmy, however, I found that I liked Mbin a lot better. Fedia.io has become my favorite forum type website.
They seem fairly chill as far as I can tell. Its some of the long time users that are the problem

It is pretty exhausting fighting their subtle tankie arguments over and over, lest someone more impressionable only see their bullshit and believe it.
Well, I don’t know. I just know that the devs seemed nice and friendly in the QA
Ironically enough, there’s some actual McCarthyism going on in here.
Is the McCarthyism in the room with us now?
Okay sockpuppet boi
