It's a solo project by @AdmiralPatrick@dubvee.org who has currently taken their instance offline to hide.

that does make sense! tbh it looks very much like something I would make... for myself... or if I did release it for others it would def be advertised as "lemmy no politics edition" not as just a general front end

Yep and this case is exactly the strength of the fediverse: transparency and choice for the users and the admins. And those developers tried to break both.

That's typical for a transphobe like Rimu

Had a feeling it was AdmiralPatrick the second I opened this thread, as I saw he blocked me from communities with zero reason or explanation within my first months on Lemmy.

On the LLM thing, there are tools that can say the likelihood that any given text was written by an LLM. Apparently, they're a necessity for English teachers these days. So, it's possible that Rimu used a tool like that.

Well look you wanna poke it with a stick or not

Your mom's a contrarian

Unfortunately (or hilariously depending on your perspective) those tools are notoriously inaccurate and often driven by LLMs themselves.

Wow, I'm famous enough to have made the list. Nice!

I kinda wonder if I wasn't on the list, but now I am because of my previous comment on this post.

I noticed this a few weeks ago. I blocked the domain and purged the hardcoded ones.

shame that piefed has similar block lists.

I wish developers would try not to play fedi-police

probably gonna get shit on for not using a VPN for literally everything all the time but I didn't realize that I was going to need to attach my terminal to a VPN to download that file! All that and I'm not even on the list as far as I can tell. I'm almost offended that I haven't offended this person.

Oh god, I'm in the user regexes. Should this be an achievement of mine?

Another badmiral. Typical.

db0 already did

You know you've lost when even Rimu thinks it's too prescriptive

DPRK = Democratic People's Republic of Korea

so you hate democracy?

@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Tbf @NounsTheVerb@lemmy.dbzer0.com was the one that found the original commit. I just discovered something was initially wrong, then did the fork and the PSA

Seems to dislike women who don't need men in their life. Par for the course.

I'm somewhat disappointed that i am not on the list. But i rarely post even if i do comment on the regular, and i tend to be not attracting drama (deserved or not) while doing so.

Still, i would have found it great if a leftist chump like me made the list lol. I am in awe of your popularity mate ;-)

In this case, I think it's part of a general effort by left-liberal refugees from Reddit, who genuinely believe that the fediverse will be the new future of Redditesque forums one day.

Unfortunately, they have learned the wrong(imo) lesson from spez becoming a Nazi and pushing his political agenda onto every Redditor. They want the politics of this new medium to be no further left than AOC, and no further right than Chuck Schumer, while seeming to be completely free and open and information must be free, etc.

You can see that in their choice of bans.

I am glad this particular effort was so incompletent. It will not be the only one.

Edit: Oh man, spelling "incompetent" incorrectly there and getting everything else right deserves to be preserved.

You done goofed. I've already backtraced your IP.

No, it's a particular type of liberalism. Freedom of speech is actually a core liberal value, and while some who think themselves liberal will use censorship, (usually political hacks doing it for political ratfuckery, like the dev of Tesseract) most do not.

Here here. Freedom of speech online, combined with the ability to control what you see, is the absolute core of a free internet, and this fucker has violated that.

Do you know if either of them support user tagging? Currently on the default lemmy UI but I'd jump in a heartbeat for user tagging.

Dishonestly.

Well, and GemAlarm.

Can you clarify which Lemmy account you are referring to by "this Dev"? I'm a little confused about who maps to what specifically here.

Also I 100% agree with you here.

is the same user

Which user specifically

Because you desperately need attention?

Oh well, it's easy enough to set a personal block on you and deprive you of attention.

I mean it's right there in the post and everything

Based on the comment chain above, https://mander.xyz/u/AdmiralPatrick@dubvee.org

@AdmiralPatrick@lemmy.world / @AdmiralPatrick@dubvee.org.

Yes, I have no idea what the rationale is. My posts are largely about silly knives, birds, motorcycles, and occasionally cameras. Other than very occasionally engaging with idiots in the comments until I inevitably remember that it's a waste of time, I don't think I've incited or attracted too much if any drama around here.

My site itself does not have a hardcoded ban in the list, though!

I don't know who you are but if you made it into their filters you're probably a very well-rounded person who should treat yourself to something nice.

"Don't need men" is such a weird thing to say though. I don't need men in my life but that's not going to stop me from having men in my life.

Those tools are themselves, LLMs. They're not trustworthy at all.

I didn't know they were an established transphobe, so I wanted to give some benefit of the doubt.

But yeah, all signs pointed to that fact.

Lets define it clearer: are not sexually dependent on someone with a penis. That's probably what his subconscious problem is.

What comment on what thread

Checked out the creator's other projects, those who remove the anime girl (the secondary-line defense) from Anubis can't be good people.

Edit: Oh man, spelling "incompetent" incorrectly there and getting everything else right deserves to be preserved.

I noticed that too and it’s a thing of beauty! There should be a special prize for that.
