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).

Ok so admittedly your post had all the trademark signs of an “i got recently banned” post, but you didn’t technically get banned I guess? So if that’s the case, I need you to explain to me what led you to making this post lol. You just woke up one day and did it for no reason? Did something specific occur? I feel like we are missing part of the story.

Anyway now that I fully acknowledge that part of things, I hope that does not keep you from seeing a larger point I am making. Surely you can see the relevance extends beyond whether or not you banned lol

The developers of Lemmy (the software that runs this) are affiliated with lemmy.ml. I don't like their attitude towards social media. That is why I asked if I can support Lemmy (the software) without contributing to Lemmy.ml.

Dude this just gets so reductionist at some point and we have had this debate over and over again around here. No you cannot donate to lemmy without lining the pockets of tankies. If that is a red line for you, then leave and find another project that better fits your values. No harm no foul, totally get it.
