Haha, what a small pathetic man.

Meta community. Discuss about this lemmy instance or lemmy in general.
Well at least open source coding makes it so this is easier to spot and the community can choose better going forward. The beauty of descentralized social media
Ye nobody would trust a proprietary one previcely for this reason
I thought Admiral Patrick """left""" lemmy more than a year ago?
I think a bit of a problem with the fediverse might be that the majority of instance admins are just barely competent enough with development that if they get upset with how other admins run their shit, they end up forking some piece of the project in order to put their thumb on the scale and bend the network to better fit their worldview.
This bullshit is starting to feel like a bit of a pattern.
Nope only did an announcement but nothing else changed
It is kind of amusing to me how often these people who run their own instances force other people to accept their own ideology.
Admiral Patrick has ruined all credibility and has proven that he doesn't add value to the fediverse. He actively detracts from it by shaping instances other than his own into his own image. Without their consent.
I'm not saying this because I'm on that user list (fucking lol) but because it's just pathetic. Rimu is doing the same thing on Piefed, Kaplan tried to do something similar by pressuring other instances to blacklist Dbzer0... Meanwhile the Flotilla seems to be the only ones willing to be completely transparent about what is going on and actually have their users decide.
And for Admiral Patrick, considering the dipshit seems to love Star Trek so much, let me remind you of what someone far better than you once said who you seem to admire.
With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.
I'm adding on my own quote.
Fuck you.
I'm not saying this because I'm on that user list (fucking lol)
It's good company, and I don't just say that because I'm on that user list. But yeah, fuck asimons04.

Otherwise known as AdmiralPatrick here on lemmy.

If they could hid a blacklist I wonder if they also could hide a coin miner or a backdoor.
With this, the author has forever ruined their own credibility.
Of course they could. They would totally ruin their credibility but they've already done that it seems. They shut off their instance and redirect it to a cartoon picture telling people to go away.
Calling a "blacklists.rs" directly in the top level rust source tree hidden is an overstatement. The blacklist is not obfuscated or compressed. It is just a blacklist.
I really hope you don't get rid of tesseract completely. It's a very useful tool when moderating and I haven't found anything with a similar feature set. This dev sucks as a person for doing something this stupid and reactive.
Edit: Apparenly he's also blocking trans friendly instances too. What a transphobic piece of shit!
Lmao they blocked thelemmy.club for a few weeks for seemingly no reason. Unhinged stuff.
Why the fuck are trans-friendly instances blocked too?? They just make wholesome memes and once in a while come over to comment ":3"
I blocked a lot of them because I'm not a fan of seeing the same shit page after page. For instance the flood of selfies recently.
But deciding what a user does and doesn't want on their feed should be the user's decision, not some sneaky hidden bullshit pulled by the world's lamest dev.
selfies? you can just block specific communities
Yeah, that's what I do.
