Huh? You just linked a community on lemmy.world. That’s a lemmy instance. The person above you is referring to piefed. You don’t understand the code.

Piefed has all the shit code that bans a bunch of stuff. They also delete your comment if it starts with a gif link. And then put your social score down one. They also block you from downvoting if your votes are negative (more downs than up). There so much dumb shit because there are against actual free speech.

See this for proof: https://lemmy.ml/comment/23662293

Me shocked to learn that PieFed (the software I am currently using) will delete My comment if it starts with a gif (like this one does)

The code doesn't actually parse the markdown in the post at all, so it only censors your comment if it's a link to common gif hosters, and posted in a way that doesn't actually render the gif.

It's laughable because it's both attempting to be draconian and implemented poorly
