I suppose this means the guy in question prefers velociraptors over people, otherwise I can't explain why am I on the list.

I am not on the list! I'm actually rather annoyed. Whose girlcock do I gotta suck to get put on the cool list?

My excuse is that I try to avoid spaces and discussions that would get you there. Stick to shitposting, thats the key to a happy life.

Shit, I gotta dial up the woke more. Human rights for everyone, I guess? Will that do it?

Initially I defended the dev and now I'm sad the leopard didn't eat my face. :'(

Not a single one of my accounts on that list. Probably because I block all news and politics and thus don't engage in any of those threads.

PieFed does all kinds of stuff but I talk about it in public. e.g. https://join.piefed.social/2024/06/22/piefed-features-for-growing-healthy-communities/ Despite this I'm sure someone will arrive shortly to describe all the times I didn't document or communicate clearly enough.

Exactly. I don't like what rimu is doing, but at least we agree on what he's doing.

Tesseract is an attempt to create a universe of alternative facts, and that sucks.

Edit: Actually, hate is the wrong word. Replaced with don't like.

It's a badge of honour. Looks like the cunt hates anything that isn't a basement dweller in their mother's house or their own mother's cunt.

Also someone who blocks literally anything that discusses rights for people and hides behind 'toxicity' have so much to hide. Maybe someone should check their hard drive.

Did you ever talk shit about billionaires or crypto? Make any anti-AI posts?

Yeah, I'm pretty unabashedly anti-capitalist, so I'm not surprised I ruffled some feathers. I was just pointing out that the idea that this was just a spam filter taken too far doesn't really hold up.

I just want Lemmy to have a better, more wholesome, and welcoming experience for new users, as such I've decided to block the things I think we can all agree are bad:

  • Calls for violence
  • Politics
  • Sex
  • Nu metal
  • People who put egg in potato salad
  • Jerry (all of them)

Yup, and this is just speculation, but I guess it’s supposed to be an anti-spam thing, but it targets a lot of people/communities/instances that post actually good content

I don’t think it’s anti-spam. It looks pretty much like a personal blocklist, it blocks a lot of users that have political views that the tess dev doesn’t agree with. It blocks political keywords often used by certain ideologies that I guess the dev doesn’t agree with, for example, no ones blocking “neoliberal” as a keyword because of spam.

This looks entirely like a personal blocklist which is completely fine, but secretly adding it to the frontend is v dubious…

It’s a shame I think the dev is a good person from the convos I’ve had with them, but this crosses a bit of a line…

Feeling offended now, going back through my comment history and thinking "Why did that not get me on there?" Am I too tame?

It's probably because I spend 60% of my time on here overthinking and eventually deleting my posts before posting them...

And 30% writing the posts that never get posted.

Oh my God, I swear some people will just never get it.

No dude, this isn't just someone trying to block spam, this is ideologically targeted to silently remove specific viewpoints from people who use the stylesheet without disclosing that they're doing that.

This obviously has nothing to do with spam. Keep giving people like this the benefit of the doubt, and see where it leads us.

Edit: I just saw your pfp... Were you aware that this blocked the entirety of Blahaj? The de facto trans instance?

Try justifying that as anti-spam.

I'm on the list and I've never even posted anything. I do comment a decent amount, though, but I wouldn't consider any of it to be spam.

I comment exclusively, and I'm on it.

Yeah you'd be overthinking it since the dev wasn't doing much themselves. The blacklist was not put together coherently and appears to be mostly built by emotion, especially in light of the dev's "I'm not sorry at all" response.

The dev is a part of a corporate structure they formed where they're named CFO. They are, in their mind, Fediverse C-suite, and they act accordingly.
