Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?

The literal server isn't the problem. The problem is the power tripping, transphobic assholes who run it. "Supporting Lemmy development" is directly paying those assholes, Nutomic and Dessalines, regardless of how much they want to obfuscate and mislead what actually happens to "Lemmy development" funds. It literally pays Dessalines to have the free time to make a hundred shitty mod actions per day.
Do you have examples of them being transphobic?
I've heard other accusations but it's the first time I beard this one, I'm curious.

Please convince me that I should continue my support or advice what I can do. I'm prepared to do my part, but I can only do so if I can be sure that my support is not going to people who think arbitrary Censorship is alright (needs to be based on objective community rules and not on the political agenda of mods).
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I would answer but I feel like this post is more about you trying to convince others to retire their economical support that any other thing. Or at least it feels like that.
Decision is yours, same as our decisions are ours.

Is this a shitlib site?
.world certainly is but .ml is not.

There should be a way to donate to development of Lemmy and it not go to ml but there is not that option because just goes to desalines and he clearly spends his time power tripping as mod of ml.
Donating to your instance admin is great but that is not furthering the development of Lemmy, it is ensuring your instance endures.
I have donated to all (my app, my instance as well as others, and lemmy dev) but i am not happy with the fact that last one means i have donated to ml and the issue IS there is currently no way around that. That IS the issue, and is why piefed is growing.
Admins/Mods like db0 do advance lemmy. Maybe not in the fundamental lemmy core but in form of tools.
