The legal representation of the voting machine companies are a box of pupies compared to the big pharma lawyers. IANAL, but this sounds like textbook defamation.

I didn't delete my account and still read https://www.reddit.com/r/drupal/, but I only comment when I think the user would have better luck posting to https://kbin.social/m/drupal or https://kbin.social/m/php. The Kbin version of the Drupal community only has 50 subscribers, but some articles get the same number of upvotes/favorites on Kbin as they do on Reddit now. Drupal users have their own Mastodon instance at https://drupal.community/ and the founder/lead of the project is active on https://indieweb.social/@dries, so it doesn't take much to convince that community to move the conversation to an open, ActivityPub based platform.
@acunasdaddy you can find magazines by searching from https://kbin.social/magazines. The Articles posted to the magazines you subscribe to show up in your feed. Microblogs are just aggregate content from the Fediverse. The moderation tools are limited, but what exists can be found by clicking the Magazine Panel button.
All of Kbin is very much a work in progress. A lot of things work as expected. Some don't. Be patient and pay it forward by helping others figure this out when you can.
I just saw a script recommended here to https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/108674/Why-do-posts-that-aren-t-from-kbin-show-kbin-social-next#entry-comment-436735 to solve a problem that would have been solved for everyone if the the same level of effort when into https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/225 as this script that alters the page after it's been rendered.
@xc2215x the irony that some the improvements made to modernize the version of PHP it runs on were contributed by Facebook and the fact that it's Twig template files can be modified by anyone familiar with HTML and CSS. You don't need to know PHP to contribute improvements.
So is Kbin. Both projects use the AGPL license, but Kbin is a PHP/Symfony based solution while Lemmy is primarily a Rust backend with a Typescript front end. If someone is going to run an instance or contribute to the code, they are likely going to choose the stack that they are most familiar with.
With a lot of #Drupal experience, the Kbin code is very approachable for me... but as other commenters have already said... whatever floats your boat.
The Kbin and Lemmy projects aren't competing as much with each other as the ActivityPub driven communities are competing with the walled gardens.
@Gargleblaster I saw mention Earnest mention https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kbin in https://mstdn.social/@[email protected]/110520630922617908, so that seems legit.
You might reach out to https://indieweb.social/@dries. He's talked openly about some of the challenges his project has had scaling and less openly about how personally he takes it when he can't solve problems with the project/contributor community. Drupal is a very mature community that has been able to foster a lot of trust between longtime contributors. What you've accomplished with Kbin already is amazing. Give yourself time to figure out how to delegate in a way that works for you. Focus on finding the right people and process over an arbitrary date.
