jointhefediverse.net - Why was Lemmy removed from the list of fediverse alternatives?
jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.
Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Lemmy was removed due to:
- reports of how the developers handle certain types of content (post removed, view an incomplete archive)
- the behavior of its creator
- how the sotware itself handles users’ privacy.
All valid concerns.
No, they’re not.
how the developers handle certain types of content
Doesn’t matter if you stay away from .ml.
the behavior of its creator
Kind of valid, but open source and open license negates a lot of that.
how the sotware itself handles users’ privacy.
You think anything else on the Fediverse is better? When you post something publicly, it’s public. Doesn’t really matter what the software does. If you don’t have End to End encryption, it’s not private.
Doesn’t matter if you stay away from .ml.
And they are. They have delisted Lemmy as a recommendation.

It’s really bad PR. I don’t recommend Lemmy to people because of this shit.

If their servers delete content you want deleted, yes.
Point 1 and 2 really need to be addressed.
It would be so much better if lemmy wasn’t developed by genocide white-washing tankies.
The linked post given on the second point is a bit flimsy. It’s basically saying that if you use evidence published by a person with shitty views, you must have them too. To me, that’s absurd as claiming that referencing FBI statistics makes someone a federal agent.
No they’re not, go back to school & relearn what FediVerse is
deleted by creator
Wait wait…what’s that last one?
