I’m not sure if it matters if the software is open source and if politics do not interfere with the development of the software.
Generally I tend to agree.
However - the devs are asking for donations - and the Lemmy code contains links to their donation page (https://join-lemmy.org/donate), so every Lemmy instance admin (tankie or not) is unwittingly advertising and promoting links to their donation page.
If you’re donating, it’s probably nice to know who is receiving your money.

Thing is you can just donate to your local instance instead
Well, this was in regards to the Devs of the actual Lemmy backend.
