The person who runs it doesn't recommend Lemmy because of the political opinions of its main developers.

Kinda funny now given that Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

It's funny how they can attack a software and all instances on it but turn a blind eye to the wrongdoings of the developers of the software they're using. It shows a lot of very personal and emotional bias, and also quite a bit of hypocrisy because they are basically saying to all the instances that use Lemmy that one can't use server software without agreeing with the developers, and yet they use Mastodon while fundamentally disagreeing with its developers.

Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

Is this true? Where can I read more about it?
