The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

Main developer and lemmy.ml admin Dessalines made this statement lately:

(!meta@lemmy.ml the comments didn't federate to this server very well)
As rumors have it now, Meta may not want to federate with any Mastodon instance but they may want to buy in with larger instances (buseness contracts including NDAs). Which means that some select places/admins may get funding to handle Meta's traffic and extensions, but the large majority will not.
some JUICY rumored details about meta's plans for the fediverse
Kev Quirk from fosstodon.org posting the invitation by Meta for a behind-the-curtains roundtable (and his reply)

It's also worth noting that the lemmy developers are Tankies and self-proclaimed authoritarians
So don't defederate with Meta to own the tankies? That seems like pretty poor reasoning.
Meta and other large companies should be defederated preemptively. You can judge them by what they have done, which consistently runs counter to the interest of ordinary people.
Just pointing out that the devs aren't doing it protect Lemmy's freedom.
You'd have more of an argument if you actually posted proof instead of ... well ... nothing.
