I keep hearing on Mastodon and elsewhere how the Lemmy devs like to close github issues prematurely, are condescending to people when responding to the issues, host CCP, North Korean, and Russian propaganda on their instances and delete any criticism of those regimes ETC. Even if you don’t care about the propaganda stuff, the rest does not bode well for accessibility fixes or continued cooperation and communication between RBlind mods and lemmy staff in the future. It’s concerning, to say the least.
It’s never happened to any of the issues I opened. Keep in mind that a lot of issues people have when hosting Lemmy are going to be because they misconfigured the database, or the server OS, or the web server, or one of a thousand other parts that the Lemmy developers can’t fix. Our Stability issues were because nginx and docker had some misconfigurations for our traffic levels. Not a Lemmy problem, and the issue about the same problem someone else opened was closed, as it should have been. But at least the install and configuration process was well enough documented that the issue eventually got found and fixed (though not by me).
