Pretty sure it's deliberate, that person is a well known troll and contrarian.

Yeah, I learnt that after this interaction with them. Ended up de-federating their instance entirely, can't see anything good coming from them in the future. And to think this is the sort of person moderating piefed.social's Fediverse comm.

Open your fucking eyes. You can no longer see the real wold for the veil of victimization you have put upon yourself. There is no class.
And most importantly, stop scheming about some great revolution and CREATE the means of production!

It's like Charlie Kirk has risen from the dead

Oh if they do that's great, the main dev of piefed went on a hissy fit because other instances used AI tooling, for them to be doing the same is just perfect. Gotta love hypocrites

Therefore the "deception" would be discovered the moment anyone tried to debug exactly those error messages in this ...open source application.

Bike fall meme material.

Good call, I don't see anything good coming from them in the future either. It's definitely concerning that this person is a mod on piefed.social, makes me feel like people need to stay away from that instance and its communities.
Also I wonder if Ada should be made aware of this person, considering their prolific history of acting in bad faith.

Which is how this post came to be, by db0 discovering it.

Tada!

They also call you a harraser for pointing out actions the dev did?

I think it could be from a different person doing the rating for the update.

Which really reinforces how terrible their rating system is

Overall, we rate The Guardian as Left-Center biased based on its story selection, which moderately favors the left. We also now rate them High for factual reporting due to minimal failed fact checks in the last five years. (5/18/2016) Updated (M. Huitsing 09/26/2025)

I've been called every name and accused of every crime under the sun.

What a crazy coincidence. I was just checking out this GitHub today. It has a project called Anewbis which is

A fork of Anubis without the cringey anime catgirl. This fork provides no other changes. It just updates from the main project and removes the stupid catgirl.

I'm no expert, but it sounds like they were killed by authoritarianism, not communism. I don't think communism requires concentration camps, famines, or cultural purges.

There is no class.

Well, that's a new one on me. I've seen people argue that the earth is flat, but this is the first time I've seen somebody argue that being rich is the same as being poor. So, congrats on originality, I guess.

nice

GUESS WHAT https://lemmy.world/post/49778353

They also block every source that doesn’t agree with the main devs ideology and politics.

if you block all the commies, gays, software pirates, plis you individually block people one by one...sooner or later there wont be anything left. maybe just a few nerds fighting over linux ricing.

Oh you didn’t know? Piefed is an extremely censored and politically biased platform lol. The main dev has made it his own little authoritarian platform. It blocks all sources that don’t align with his political beliefs and ideologies, and auto blocks/tags users that he doesn’t like because they disagree with his ideologies.

It’s disheartening to see more and more people using Piefed.

Censoring leftists? No, he censors anything to the right of left more than anything. Maybe he censors the faaaar left as well, but anything “conservative”, right wing, or centrist is censored.

I mean. If you want to use it in a serious project, that anime-looking girl is completely out of place.

Older versions were crazy, guessing they've finally got it roght. I think they should have launched with a "In beta, algorithm is learning" message. People implemented it right at launch and had expectations, and it was just not ready, total dumpster fire.

There's a commercial license you can use to replace the image

That's why the author offers a commercial license with custom image and serious name.

Some people have no whimsy

"I know better than you"

(This person does, in fact, not know better than you)

Yea, it's still a shame I can't use it for nonprofit work.

Imagine a serious website you spent month on the content, just to be sabotaged by the catgirl bouncer.

Edit: undeleted. I just didn't want to sound like I blame the creator(s) in a way.

Surprise, secretly fascist the whole time! 🌎 🧑‍🚀🔫

Maybe ask the author for what to do? I'm sure they are receptive to arguments.

So was Jordan Peterson

Looks like deeply agenda driven anti-cognition with a side of insane respectability politics in an effort to appeal to other people who already think like them. It's really too bad you can't truly block people on fediverse, because that seems like the exact type of goal that, even if you don't feed that troll, it still gets a quip in that appeals to their audience, energizing it and stroking the fire.

and removes the stupid catgirl.

Blasphemy! Someone fork the fork, call it AnUwUbis, and readd the catgirl.

I keep hearing so much shit that piefed does but also see a ton of people either ignoring it or praising it. Does piefed have some sorta propaganda team or something?

Sooooooo just renamed Anubis? Daring today, aren't we?

OR apply that guy's patch to get the same shit for free

(nobody tell corporate)

Please un-.ml your links.

here

The markup for that: [here](id)

EDIT: nvm doesn't w*rk reliably (thanks, nutomic), here use the .world original (copy link and paste into search box)

ah good catch I meant to link hte original

read edit mb

I mean it works by just clicking the fedi icon ? I'm not sure what you mean with the markup.

Catboy? Thoughts anyone? Thoughts? Cat boy?

Or dog boy to fit the anubis theme.

As established in the other thread here, state-wide communism can only be achieved by the violent means.

What needs to follow is for the people to willingly forget some of what they know, uninvent the market, money, and give up every possesion that's of any significant value. That is not going to happen without violence either.

And to keep the society in this state, you need an aparatus that will constantly keep them in fear, or ar least apply some kind of double-think. A dictatorship is the only way to do that.

This is how the soviet style communism has been brought to my city:

Communism is inherently authoritarian.

And to that I say:
Authoritarians of the world, gurgle my balls!

Sorry they blocked the maga instance you agree with about everything at all times in addition to the left and trans instances you hate.

So? You not knowing the reason doesn’t make it anti-Left or anti-Trans.

You're only defending it because you know it's both.

It’s really incredible how you think it’s okay to mislabel people as anti-Left and anti-Trans even when they aren’t.

I think it's ok to label you anti-left and anti-trans because you're both.

It is amazing that you offered up a textbook example of what I accused you of right here.

You're accusing them of telling the truth about you.

Oh this would be a bliss...

Liberalism is right wing, and is allowed. Anything to the left of liberalism, from anarchism to socialism to communism, is censored. It's clear as day that Piefed is right-wing at the developer level. The fact that the far right is also censored does not make it left wing.

It’s right wing yet it censors every remotely right wing/conservative source?

Sure, in the same way that saying "fascism is bad" is technically an opinion. This, however, neglects the objective correctness of Marxism, which deliberately doesn't rely on subjectivism or moralistic arguments, and the incoherence of liberalism and fascism at an objective level.
