Lemmy.ml devs own the repo, it's just licensed as open source software under the GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE. You can read the license in the repo files. So you can fork off it and run your own instance. If you go to GitHub.com/LemmyNet you see the two people who are members of the project, with the accounts, both have Fidel Castro avatars.

Personally I think having a bunch of socialists run the software, is by definition the best way to have it avoid corporate interests.

Seriously, if you don't understand the politics of the lemmy devs, you're functionally not understanding the point of lemmy. I think people believe in more socialist ideas than they've been lead to believe, especially with the rampant conflating of "leftists" in media to mix it with liberals as a tactic from the right. Lemmy is inherently political, and that's a GOOD thing.

They passed a law to allow Conscripts to fight now. That's my only guess is if they can use this as an excuse to do a full mobilization and finish the Ukrainian situation.

Guys seriously please don't send me money, this is just a test

It's brand new too, I literally asked the dev for one tap comment collapsing and he added it the next day or so.

As a fellow Software Engineer/architect myself, really nothing but praise for these guys.

I haven't landed at a position on it either, but I could definitely see how if people understood they had to pay at least some portion of the rescue costs, they will try to be more educated and prepared when venturing out into the wild/at sea. Its extremely important to take this stuff seriously and too many people already treat nature like a joke and get themselves in terrible situations cause they just know a helicopter can come pick them up*

Honestly this comment seems more crack infused than OPs. How do you even come to this conclusion from him pointing out a fact, and posting a stupid meme?

He's a neo Nazi for pointing out that the author of the article is the Ukrainian Prime Minister? I don't follow.

Honestly a delusional move. Culturally, Reparations are paid by the loser. Even in Ukraines victory scenario where they kick Russia or of their territory, Russia will not be anywhere near desperate enough to admit defeat at a level to pay reparations. Russia would simply start retooling for another go. All this does is give Russian propaganda more fuel to justify their point of view, without helping anybody.
