Quoting the author

I’ve starting working on a lemmy front end called lemmy-ui-leptos using leptos, a Rust UI framework with isomorphic support, and tailwind + daisyUI for the component styling. This could eventually replace the frankenstein’s monster that lemmy-ui has become.

The Lemmy developers can do good things and increase net wellbeing while being complete morons. There is nothing in Lemmy's license that says that by using their software you need to support their ideologies.

The Christian teaching of "hate the sin, love the sinner" is the best approach here. Showing support for what the lemmy devs are doing while showing how despicable are their beliefs and stating where are your differences will always work better than trying to boycott their (non-stupid-belief-related) work.

Exactly. I consider myself libertarian and I enjoy hacking on lemmy-related projects. I've contributed to some, and started building others. I think it's a cool project.

I also 100% disagree with the creators ideologically. I think it's really cringy that one of the main devs has a public set of communist/socialist essays, but that doesn't impact me in any way. I'm a huge fan of free and open source software, and I enjoy working on lemmy projects, so I'll continue as long as I find value in it.
