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 sorry, I’m a bit out of the hook here, but what is a tankie? I know what TERFs are, but I’ve never heard the term tankie. Are they something like radical communists (given that it was mentioned the main source of them is lemmygrad.ml)?
Yea, they’re authoritarian communists specifically, so people who support regimes and ideas such as the USSR, PRC, NK, etc.
