        There’s one more instance for them, Lemmygrad. Only join if you truly support ML ideology, otherwise just stay in your instance.

        It makes a lot more sense when you consider the history of it all, but the admins have made this a general purpose instance it really has little to do with it anymore.

          Little to do except for the part where admins just banned a bunch of people for criticizing the Chinese government.
