Nothing says punk rock like a whole ass site that spends every moment of existence trying to dunk on leftists.
Edit: So is Sublinks just a fork project of Lemmy? The dev has all the Lemmy stuff forked in his personal github and lol. I ask again, if you wanna make an echo chamber on Lemmy, why not just defed from everyone, yes it's dumb but it saves you the headache of spending 5 days trying to fix shit from a poorly executed migration.

Worse (or at least more pathetic), according to the comments from a mod in the thread it's because they don't know rust and don't want to learn it.

Because apparently libs are too stupid to use anything other than enterprise corporate slime. This and the use of microsoft forms really gives off "elon musk insisting they use windows for the paypal servers" energy.
