No one is demanding them full stop. If you want to make us pay, we don’t want you. That’s an un-demand.
I’m one voice of a community. As you can tell from many of the other posts in here, it seems to be a majority sentiment on the majority leftist Fediverse.
No one is demanding they work for us.
We’re demanding they don’t come here and demand money. If they don’t want to provide content for free like the rest of us, we don’t mind them not being here.
Sure it’s the people latching and trying to extract blood (money) from us the content creators.
If Lemmy or Reddit was simply a list of shared URLs without user interactions no one would use these sites.
The posters are the content, we are not your personal business platform, we are people wanting to engage with other people.
If you’re that cheap, you can register on this instance. I can assure you the owner has zero interest in making you pay for using it.
Small communities being run and paid for by self owned admins is nothing new and with how cheap it all is these days is even less of an issue.
If you really need donations, there are a million ko-fi like services.
Yeah that’s why I’m telling them to fuck off.
And some of the people are tired of capitalism being injected into everything.
Why can we not just have a space where people can be people without monetising it?
Fuck off.
Stop monetising everything, let us just enjoy our space without injecting business into it.
Is that a crime?
I swear officer I did no such thing.
Or the Oracle of Delphi?
I’ve seen it often on pro-Israel accounts before. But they’re usually all registered a year ago and cycled through posting content.
Such as @idoubledo@lemmy.sdf.org.

Here is one of the devs with an entire FAQ showing their denial of the Uyghur genocide.
From before Kbin shut down, I was hearing a lot of talk of the Mbin devs being dickheads and spamming around the site.
I don’t think they’re genocide denying authies like the Lemmy devs, but the mbin team isn’t great either.
Why not look into something like PieFed?
Recycling is largely a scam.
It mostly serves to pass the blame onto individuals and not be handful of companies responsible for 99% of all pollution.
We’ll be better close his window, it’s raining out.
Really explains the state of the world where even on Lemmy you have people coming in to fight for big businesses invading our people spaces.
Our species is fucked.
I made this my wallpaper, it’s got a vibe to it.
Don’t be obtuse.
Demand as in want, not demand as in order.
We is the community.
And the majority of the community agrees. My voices and theirs reflect that.
