I made a blog post discussing my biggest issues with Lemmy and why I am kind of done with it as a software.

You really think I should be grateful that you stuck by my software? Why arent you grateful for the years of work I put into this software, and for allowing you to use it for free? There are many instances which have "stuck by" Lemmy for years, such as hexbear or lemmygrad, and none of them ever showed the sort of entitled attitude that beehaw admins have.

Again I dont have any obligation or even incentive to do any work for you specifically. If you dont like how I act as "spokesperson" or "community manager" (in reality Im an open source maintainer), then stop using Lemmy and go to Sublinks, Reddit or any other platform.

i don't care about debating this with you. i will, as a concluding remark, just note incredible irony in lecturing about entitlement while simultaneously demanding gratitude for your work from people you literally just told to fuck off from this service three replies ago. in very blunt terms: i think you are getting the exact level of gratitude you deserve from us after this exchange, which is none. my experiences with you have been thoroughly unpleasant, unkind, and paint you as a toxic person and it is my view that your "years of work put into this software" are meaningless in the face of the blatant disrespect you show members of your community.

If my work on Lemmy is meaningless then please stop using it. You cant have it both ways.

Interesting choices. Often it doesnt seem like they would be using the more advanced moderation tools anyway. Its just natural that they dont complain about something missing they dont need.
