We link the recent theory of $L$-algebras to previous notions of Universal Algebra and Categorical Algebra concerning subtractive varieties, commutators, multiplicative lattices, and their spectra. We show that the category of $L$-algebras is subtractive and normal in the sense of Zurab Janelidze, but neither the category of $L$-algebras nor that of pre-$L$-algebras are Mal'tsev categories, hence in particular they are not semi-abelian. Therefore $L$-algebras are a rather peculiar example of an algebraic structure.
