The creators of Lemmy are tankies and have some pretty despicable views, maybe we shouldn’t advertise giving them money.
I like the software, it feels cozy outside some communities from lemmy.ml, and I hope someone forks it eventually, but for now removing the link should be easy to do.

I’m okay with turning off the donation button but I think the code itself should probably be fine to use. full disclosure: I have no idea what a tankie is.
edit: I do have to say though, I think kbin is a might bit prettier than Lemmy!
Yeah, kbin does have a much nicer UI, though “magazines” is a bit odd instead of “communities”, but that’s so minor.
It’s a play on words, since kbin comes from karabin (rifle in Polish)
Ah ha, that makes more sense
