This was probably Bitwarden on the Sopuli instance right? Could you perhaps share a link discussing this in detail?

What the heck? It's free software and a specific detail about free software is that it may be used for any purpose regardless of the authors ideas. That's some serious fucked up witch hunt.
@Catradora_Stalinism@lemmy.ml Sorry, can't reply directly. Check out these two links:

Its all right! Thank you for getting this for me!
god some of them read like bots on that mastodon thread.
I remember that post and ooof the cringe was hardcore. I don't understand how people belived that shit.
To be honest, I haven't seen the developers put any demands or anything on what people use it for. Just look at Wolfballs and how it's on https://join-lemmy.org/instances despite their home server blocking them. I think that's very respectable.
I don't think so. It's just that a bad reputation lasts a long time, and the lemmy platform have had some rowdy representation for a while. Again, the developers have taken sensible steps when they started promoting Sopuli and Beehaw on the join-lemmy page, two seemingly wholesome instances that welcomes anyone.
what happened to them? I never heard about this.
Such a shame...
I was even excited to see them join a community as small as ours.
I know, it really saddened me. We need to discuss these things, work together to change the federated culture and become attractive to new users. But it feels like everywhere I look, people either want to compete directly or they can't see the big picture.
wait What happened?
If youre looking for a more general purpose instance, try out beehaw.org
About a week ago Bitwarden created an official community on the instance sopuli. But now it seems the community has been removed by Bitwarden due to public backlash.
