It's fun until people bring up that the main devs political positions are debatable https://github.com/dessalines/essays/blob/main/socialism_faq.md#whats-going-on-with-the-uyghurs

And I said debatable because I have no strong opinion on the matter. That would make me a lib for some people, a leftist for others, I don't really care.

What I've seen is that argument is regularly brought up by detractors of the platform, which is why I always insist on saying that Piefed and Mbin are compatible and managed by other development teams
