I wondered why I was getting less interaction recently π€£.
sigh
Okay, jealousy unlocked. Well done!
Me not on the list:
I want to see if this small human still looks this angry when they grow up
I am both glad and sad I'm not on the list. UwU
From the looks of the list, basically nobody I can recognize, the people behind the list ( if it wasn't just the dev alone ) really has a hard on for a lot of people.
Same thing for website as well. A lot of sites that have either some genAI features or are about genAI/genAI tools or are genAI slop coded to the extreme. Actually fine with that because fuck genAI. But also gumroad, bit(dot)ly, wixsite, ceilingsanddryliningsupplies(dot)co(dot)uk ( literally looks like a completely innocent businesses website ), another innocent looking store ( distinctive Chesterfields ( furniture ) ), linktree, google forms & gemeni, and a lot more are also on the list.
The list feels all over the place and as nutty as can be.
Cuz I'm a bad ass motherfuckin' DJ
This is why I walk and talk this way!
So big on the weird part of the internet they had to update they software
If I post trans memes monthly and study das kapital every day, will I make it to the list next year? I don't want to un-disappoint my parents!
We should award everyone on the list with a badge next to their username the same way new users show up with a chick next to theirs.
(I am not currently on the list and I am slightly salty about it)
new users show up with a chick
With at what now?
(I am not currently on the list and I am slightly salty about it)
A lot of people donβt belong in the list but I think youβve earned your place.
Telling everyone you don't get it without telling everyone you don't get it.
I donβt get much Iβm pretty slow.
Ayyy I made the list π₯³. Honestly it feels like almost the whole-ass threadiverse is on the list π
I'm not on the list :(
just @ AdmiralPatrick@dubvee.org and make your appeal to be on the list. Be sure to do it reeeeaaaallly politely and maybe he'll let you join π
You'll get there someday kid π zooms off on cool-ass motorcycle
Whoa whoa whoa non-listie..
Is that really how you want to be addressing someone on the list?
Lmfao you're truly taking this for a ride and I'm here for it
Get out.
Brag more, will you?
I work with computers and I have no idea what I am looking at here. Anyone have some context?
It's not computers, it's the latest drama here in the Fediverse.
Big frontend called Tessarect did a sneaky.
They made a hidden shadow-ban list of instances, users, and phrases, keeping it secret from users and admins by not including it in the open source code and instead loading it at runtime, and added in there all non-centrist (instances, users, and phrases) they could think of. They also lied about it, by claiming it to be a technical issue, when any user looked for the banned instances from the front-end, instead of calling it what it is, a targeted exclusion.
Essentially, hidden censorship, and sliminess.
To the degree that some people, (like OP here), have taken it as a badge of honor, that they are among the ones banned by name, in that list.
And some other people, are definitely not jealous.
so the same thing piefed did?
thank you kindly!
what the heck is this?
I leave for a few days and the memes have changed from beans to...... this.?
There's a popular frontend for Lemmy called "Tesseract". About a week ago the dev pushed an apparently malicious update with a block list which contains lots of leftist (as in even slightly left leaning) communities and users.
OP searched for and found his username in that block list.
The file OP searched in is "policy.json", which doesn't exist in the source code. The command pulls the content of the url decodes it from base64, unzips it and puts the content in policy.json. Which means the source code obfuscates the file by default.
(the only file called "policy" I could find in the source code is a .dat file which has the encoded data).
lol and they just closed sourced it.
are they breaking licensing laws now?
@ptz@dubvee.org if you're going to shit on the community, at least have the decency to stand by your work.
lots of leftist
Apparently they just blocked whoever didn't agree with the devs, it's mainly leftists but there are some rightist too, they blocked the word "Enlightened centrist" so the devs are for sure enlightened centrists and blocked whoever isn't
Time for some good ol fashioned 1TropicalDingdong
(if iβm reading that regex correctly)
^ means the start of the text, so you can't add anything before. But it ends with any number of digits, so TropicalDingdong1 it is
Right so if itβs a blacklist 1TropicalDingdong would go right around it
Oh right haha I thought you wanted to join the cool kids club of blocked names instead
Omfg stop showing off! I'm getting jealous, I'm almost certainly not in there, and I'm feeling left out!
