None of this is in the source code. It’s downloaded at runtime from a file nobody has ever looked at.

diabolical, thanks for all your work with this

I looked at the block list and I’m not in it.

I think my conservative community gets filtered out though.

Is this that cesspit of a community which is basically just squatting the name out of petty spite

I love it!

Lemmy people try not to censor people you disagree with challenge (impossible)

They didn't block SatansMaggotyCumFart? Maybe your name is "straight" enough for them hahahaha

What an asshole

I think I got banned from there

Some megamod mass banned me from a bunch of random communities which is annoying, basically reddit behaviour

Or..... Tesseract behavior! Amirite?

I think it’s mostly because I’m known for well-thought out contributions to the communities I post in.

That's true, though I don't expect bigots to take the time to think through many things like that lol

Isn't tesseract a frontend for lemmy?

I can't even.

I am honestly not sure how to feel, discovering I somehow made it into that list.

well, Patrick sure lost A LOT of faithpoints with this shit.

Take my upvote, you deserve it for the sheer gall of this one.

Apparently a private, racist one

I'm on the list!!! Does that mean I'm not racist?

You should be proud, I'm a bit disappointed I'm not on the list

A lot of that domain list is real spam defence. It filters conservatism as well as communism. “It targets the left” doesn’t survive the data and I’m not going to pretend it does.

Based retraction. Credit where it's due. (Not that you can read this, ironically).

Congrats!

It's so funny they put a regex on my name in case I decide to make a new account with numbers on the end. Something which I have no history of doing.

I made the list! I'm famous!

They can't even write regex properly.

The only difference between ([0-9]+)? and [0-9]* is that the latter actually readable.

I wonder if im on the blocklist (I hope im important enough to be :3)

At least one of your alts did. Sad that I didnt make it ☹️

I don't understand, what instance uses this? If they filter the listed words does that mean posts containing them won't show? That would make conversations on Lemmy incoherent with gaps and wipe out probably 50% of the content?

I can't believe I missed my chance at the mad mod ban list EGOT 😥

Damn 😔

There are also a bunch of names that don’t have the $ terminator, and will match anyone whose name starts with that.

The fact that they didn't just vibecode this by throwing in the dubvee ban list (I believe is a source or similar) is just even more sad. Yer man sat there listing out 500 people on lemmy he doesn't like bg hand.

How do I find this list?

Check the original post, it has a curl command that generates it for you.

Yeahhhh, that's pretty much malware at this point

absolutely is, true! they can change that file at any time to include anything they wanted

I just get an error page ☹️

I am very glad my coworkers can't hear me laugh, would not want to explain why I laughed at this.

What’s so funny?

I mean, I can't deny that the comments you post are well thought out, and are amazing at encouraging participation and engagement within the fediverse.

Wait I feel like you're saying something without actually saying that thing.

it's a frontend. like an app client, but used in a browser.

I'm still not clear <snip>

Edit: nevermind, I see now. This thread helped.

I'd give you a pat on the back. Thank you for your continuing contributions!

Wait, how many alts do you have? XD

It's a curl command, run it in a bash terminal. It makes a file with the list

None. Which makes this even stranger. Not only am I on the list, this guy for whatever reason anticipated that I might make alts with different numbers after my name.

I don’t get it.

Face it laddie, you’re part of the woke mob now.

I ain’t woke I sleep.
