Lemmy.ml is acting as a proxy instance for Hexbear and should be defederated by any instances that defederate from Hexbear (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It's absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn't be allowed to continue.

It's not thriving. The devs are prickly arseholes, which is anathema to building a cooperative, volunteer-driven dev community and the tone of many mainstream communities is obnoxiously set by tankies amd their alts.

Probably one of if not the biggest reasons people had poor experiences on Lemmy before was because they signed up on Lemmy.ml

LOL this was me. I thought it would be cool to be on the DEV instance and didn't know that it had a whole lot of other baggage on it.

It would've been me too, but when I started looking at Lemmy the dev's instance was closed along with many others, so the first one was Lemmy.world for me. While Lemmy.world has its flaws it's still way better than ml, really dodged a bullet there.

You were lucky. I got in right before the Reddit exodus, so I guess I got in before they closed things down.

What have they done to prevent a cooperative, volunteer driven dev community?

My experience contributing to lemmy was not bad, albeit it was pretty small thing.
