This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they'd like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.

Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.

it’s hard to be a neutral body in affiliation with anything that has an overt political stance.

What the hell? This is open source. The minute the devs do something to the product that people don't like, a bazillion forks will appear. While they are the developers of Lemmy, the code isn't theirs, it's everyone's.
