In case anyone has moral issues with migrating to Lemmy vs Kbin, check this out. So yea, turns out the dude stole a lot of code from other projects and people.

Wow, very condemning… He apologized and said he was gonna make it right, so where’s the problem? Also, comparing apples and eggs here. “Stealing” code VS. human rights issues / tankies…

Honest and open, sounds like a good guy. I can totally see such mistakes happen. He handled it perfectly.

Perfectly handled IMHO, very open and honest. Transparency is important!

I can definitely see how that could happen.

He apologised and fixed it. This is actual a very moral thing to acknowledge fault and resolve that.

What matters is how we use the platform. Unless they’re doing something too outrageously repugnant to ignore, I don’t really care what the folks behind Lemmy/Kbin get up to. My biggest concern is the quality of the community.
