@stefan I missed the poll but I'm curious: why wouldn't you include Lemmy?

@caesar See the second link in my original post: https://github.com/jointhefediverse-net/jointhefediverse.net?tab=readme-ov-file#why-was-lemmy-removed-from-the-list-of-fediverse-alternatives
Unless you're asking why the reasons listed are enough to keep them from being included? (Just making sure I got the question right.)

@stefan Thanks, sorry I'd missed that somehow. Having read the linked material, I agree that the behaviour and political positions of the lead dev seems concerning. I'm not sure if that's reason enough to avoid the software itself (as opposed to the instances run by the devs) but I guess that was the reason for the poll! (And it seems people are pretty divided on it.)
Either way I can see both sides of the argument, and it's obviously up to you to decide what you're comfortable including. -
@caesar No worries! Yeah, much like the results of the poll, I am pretty torn. I do want to give folks visiting the website a full(er) picture of the fediverse, but I do agree that some of this stuff is a bit too concerning.
I am still trying to figure out how to best go about this, as making any changes to the site requires translation to over a dozen languages.
Either way, I appreciate your understanding!

@stefan Promoting individual instances instead of software projects would be great (and probably more helpful to new users) but of course it would be a *huge* burden to maintain, even beyond the initial work involved.
Thanks for your work on this anyway – I hadn't seen the site before, and it's definitely a useful resource to point people to.

@caesar Thank you! Yeah, this was originally just a simple page I quickly threw together, and it was really amazing to have folks offer translating it and making it that much more useful.
