If you go to lemmy.ml it's just a bunch of fucking redditors with their dogshit memes and like three lemme users. It's sad. I strongly encourage users of this site who are so inclined to take a break from infighting to bully neoliberals over there.

    I'm confused, I thought it was explicitly marxist-leninist.

      The devs of Lemmy, who host that instance, are M-Ls with communists as their profile image, but lemmy.ml is only explicitly leftist, and the admins aren't going to drive libs away because their main goal is to become a reddit alternative, not a communist commune. They might cut the fat once other instances are more established... or they could go the way of /r/antiwork. It's hard to guess without asking them.

      Lemmygrad is ML which is another instance that federates with lemmy.ml. Lemmy.ml is the place with the biggest influx from users from reddit.

          It's the top level domain for the country of Mali, but it stands for Marxism-Leninism in our headcanon.

          Nope, it is just one domain name that if I remember correctly can be obtained for free. It is commonly used by such projects, both lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml use it.
