    I fully agree that the majority of Lemmy users (and probably Mastodon, though I haven’t checked) appear to be authoritarian Marxists, but both my local syndicates and the international workers confederation ICL-CIT have active Mastodon presences, so there’s definitely an effort by anarchists to move away from corporate-owned communications platforms. Could do without the marxist-leninists though, who sadly seem to make up 100% of the Lemmy dev team.

    Source on these claims? Leather production isn’t exactly easy on the environment, nor the health of (typically third-world country) workers involved in the process.

    Personally I’ve been wearing the same pair of synthetic leather boots to my job which has me walk ~20k steps a day for 5 years now, and the only part of the shoe showing signs of wear is the rubber sole, which I had to glue back on.
