Just brought up #Lemmy for the first time, and immediately found an accessibility bug. In general, Lemmy seems to get many things right, but in a non-English UI version of the web front-end, the global HTML lang attribute is still set to English, causing my screen reader to read German words with an English synthesizer, which sounds quite gibberish. I filed an issue and hope they can address it soon: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/i…

I've heard a good deal about Lemmy on the various subreddits that are protesting the API changes. Sadly, I've mostly heard rather unenthusiastic comments. It's tiny, the few active areas are all communist extremists who love what Russia is doing, that kind of thing. I hope Lemmy has its own Mastodon moment, where Mastodon was small for years before suddenly exploding in popularity.

@alexhall Yeah, I am finding this out as well. And the main author himself seems to be a total right-wing fashist jerk. BTW: I do not even understand why all these communists find Russia so great, because what Putin does is anything but communist or socialist, but downright fashist as well. See this thread for some background on the author: raddle.me/f/lobby/155371/warni…
