The Lemmy devs don't seem to hardcode those opinions into Lemmys source code.
They had one for a while, but removed it on pushback.
That's why I first joined kbin.
Yet somehow people say Lemmy's software is tainted when it doesn't have hard coded "We do not allow these to be made in our software".
One could argue the design choices themselves are hardcoded opinions, as it would be possible to imagine for example a more democratic way to moderate.
