In light of the dev silently blacklisting blahaj.zone, many of its users and several other instances, we have removed tesseract from the available lemmy front ends we offer.

Ah dang. Did they get my nick at all? 🤞
Nah gotta up your posting game, I got individually and regex blocked 💪
Shiiiiiiiitfuuck. Gfdi.
I am disappoint.
Congrats. Well done. Happy for you.
Edit: I’m just laughing my ass off that they’re out there angrily regex blocking INDIVIDUAL people in hardcoded encrypted hidden files. The more I think about it the funnier it gets
Edit 2: okay now I’m starting to feel sorry for them. Because yeah that’s kinda sad.
Edit 3: nope, funny again hahahahahahaha
I know I didn’t expect to be so saddened about not being infamous enough to be on the blocklist.
Part of me is disappointed, but also part of me is glad the world at least still has gestures vaguely to everything this level of anonymity.
Wonder if we should ask the devs of Lemmy and Piefed to somehow disable access to them, as it’s far-right idiots doing this…
As this unfolds across the comms the dev is doublefucked in the FOSS community anyway.
I’m not sure I understand, disable access to the blocklists? That’s up to the frontend Tesseract, it doesn’t interact with lemmy or piefed. It’s the frontend that is developed independently from either choosing not to display posts depending on the dev’s weird list.
As for piefed, the main dev has his own strongly opinionated lists that he maintains. Most of them can be disabled by the admins who set up a piefed instance.
And tankies aren’t rw.
That too of course
I meant as in, that those who ““develop”” the crap frontend, can no longer access whatever enables them to develop it. If that’s on Lemmy’s devs, then that’s there.
Oh, that’s not really thing in open-source. The source being public means anyone can work on it. There are certain restrictions in terms of monetizing that are put in place by licensing but you can’t forbid individual people from working with, rewriting or redistributing the code (for good reason).
Fair point. I suppose deplatforming is best, then, promoting the good frontends and not mentioning the bad ones.
Dang, I only got regexed
