Everyone knows a cornerstone principle of the Fediverse was that there should be secret ban lists baked into the website’s frontend that aligns to a single maintainer’s ideology.

    As long as that maintainer is me. I can’t trust anyone else to do it. But all you lemmings need to just blindly accept my ruling. Trust me bro.

    They are free to put whatever they want into their free software. They are also free to be heavily criticised and ostracized for it.

    is THAT what “federation” means? Absolute power concentrated to the whims of a single entity? It all makes sense now.

    The Fediverse isn’t about empowering users and local communities it’s about saviours making sure us savages get what’s best for us.

    Yeah I’m sure he convinced him as elf it was for a good reason, and the idea isn’t inherently bad. The primary issue is the clear intention to hide it. If there was a notice when you first accessed tesseract that asked if you wanted to enable “Toxic Mode” as he called it, or if there was some sort of indication when posts were removed by the filter, many of the complaints would no longer apply. The fact it was enabled by default, and hidden buried into advanced settings under a question meant to be ignored, located and phrased like the bullshit useless Windows Settings helper stuff, just means he never intended it to really be found. If you have to hide it because you know people don’t want it… You’re not on the right side of the issue. The fact he also included a DDOS script in the good ye notice is just proof everyone else was right. He’s a piece of shit, regardless anything else. Only a true cuntwaffle does that.
