There's two "full time" Lemmy developers, and one of them just added a repeating dialog box that will pop up regardless of instance asking for money to be sent to his and another lemmy.ml admin's personal accounts as a salary.

Maybe a stupid question, couldn't someone just fork it and remove this?

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world -5 points 3 months ago (5 children)

Yep, lots of people have been wanting to fork.

Especially since the excuse for lemmy.ml is the two developers need a "test instance" because there's so many bugs when they release.

The large instances are usually a couple versions behind because they give volunteers time to fix the code first.

There's no benefit tying the future of all instances to lemmy.ml

Fork it, it's free.

I'd love to see you try to maintain the codebase. That's not free.
