Having more users isn't going to help if the core developers are anti-diversity.

If not being able to say the N-word impedes your ability to articulate your political worldview, you should probably reflect on that.

I was expecting your link to make some kind of point to substantiate your "anti-diversity" claim. This just shows they don't allow slurs on the platform.

Not "on the platform." In the software. Lemmy is not a website.

It's a federated protocol. You can run your own instance that allows slurs and federate with whoever agrees. That's a non-issue.
