Edit: For context, @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com discovered that the developer of Tesseract had discretely banned numerous instances and disguised it as a server error. This included more heavily leftist instances, but also blahaj.zone. More recently, it was discovered that they had also been suppressing individual users, phrases, and communities that criticize power tripping on fedi.
Needless to say, I implore non blahaj.zone users to drop the Tesseract client (support for the client has already been dropped for blahaj). So called “liberals” like this who call out “extremism on both sides” are an insult to the values they claim to be upholding.
You are just too nice. And you are wrong, blahaj.zone was not banned. Users and communities on there were banned, but neither the lemmy nor the piefed instance.
dbzer0 on the other hand had an instance ban.
If I remember correctly, wasn’t in the second and more hidden list, but it was in the more easily accessible suppressed instances list. Also, why am I too nice?
Dunno, you are nice
edit: kind is maybe the better word?
I try to be. There’s no benefit to being mean to people who have done nothing to wrong you. I still like to have venom for assholes who cause problems tho
I was in the OG blocklist as “garden-variety crackpot” https://github.com/paulo-roger/tesseract/blob/2b53f17a5506b7c4b3ad1d5c26af49662f03a478/src/lib/blacklists.ts#L2711-L2725
. Although I’d like to object to the “garden-variety” part, my crackpottery is artisanal.
wonder what was the reason they claimed for me getting on the list lol
