I guess i'm not interesting enough
Are you on the list? Do you want a badge?
No, I'm serious.
Or just steal this .gif!
LOL
Nouuu, i dont post so i didnt get banned. I need a similar badge but for getting chased at a pride protest
That is hilarious
making a list of undesirables to disenfranchise is a rather alarmingly faschy thing to do >.>; just sayin'...
i've been mulling it over and it creeps me out more and more. all too easily, a misplaced sense of self-importance in a principal administrative figure can spoil like milk forgotten in a hot car. I've seen this sort of thing happen PERSONALLY.
Someone I had known became the big fish in their small pond. They began systematically ejecting and excommunicating anyone who didn't agree with them. Eventually the only people left in their circle were exclusively yes-men who did not DARE to challenge or question anything--lest they were to dispose of said yes-men too. Yes-men incentivized to say 'yes' to, and thereby condone, and then encourage, increasingly outrageous and deranged impulses.
The first domino has fallen over and struck the second, which is now tilting past any point of equilibrium. For a while longer, everything will be fine; the people who ingratiate themselves will be selectively immune from the same criticisms that get others blanket-'disappeared'... so hey, one might enjoy using that frontend for now...
...but I implore mindfulness and wariness. Very seldom do I see someone cross the first line without crossing the rest of them eventually. It's not impossible, but it's far from common. Anyone still using that frontend, if they start seeing "a certain kind of person" being bolstered exceptionally at the expense of everyone else, it's time to bail.
While it's not my place to dictate what the tesseract dev does, I do recall reading that they specifically were feeling dissatisfied with the work, and disappointed by the way their users were acting, and had been considering abandoning the project. While I can't speak for this developer, obviously, I can't help but imagine myself in their position... and on that basis I for one believe I would have sooner relinquished the project and walked away entirely rather than see myself turn it into a tool of targeted harassment and marginalization With A Cheerful Coat Of Paint.
.......
it's just setting off my alarm bells real bad. This looks too much like other abusive shit i've been through over the decades.
but eh. maybe i'm just paranoid... grain of salt, mileage may vary, et cetera.
Pretty fucking funny imo.
This has to be just for the creators use right? Like accidentally committed, or a project where they had no intention of others actually using it? Any other explanation is insane.
No, it's very much deliberate. You can read about the rationale straight from the developer's mouth (well, keyboard) right here:
I don't understand any of this but I would like to know how to find out if I am on the list.
Doesn't look like you are: https://copyparty.adrian.place/u/?doc=policy.json
You're not on it. But come, let us both step up our game and get on this list together
I just want Lemmy to have a better, more wholesome, and welcoming experience for new users, as such I've decided to block the things I think we can all agree are bad:
You forgot "perchance"! The worst crime of Lemmy.......
Feeling offended now, going back through my comment history and thinking "Why did that not get me on there?" Am I too tame?
It's probably because I spend 60% of my time on here overthinking and eventually deleting my posts before posting them...
And 30% writing the posts that never get posted.
Yeah you'd be overthinking it since the dev wasn't doing much themselves. The blacklist was not put together coherently and appears to be mostly built by emotion, especially in light of the dev's "I'm not sorry at all" response.
The dev is a part of a corporate structure they formed where they're named CFO. They are, in their mind, Fediverse C-suite, and they act accordingly.
I like how this dev used regex to match any similar names, not just the specific name they're trying to block. People out there catching strays, getting blocked when they've done nothing but have a similar name to someome this dev doesn't like.
"^Darkassassin([0-9]+)?$",
Did they block me? Someone else, but I'm similar?
I've never used another number with this name, just the full 'Darkasassin07'
Screw anyone called 'Darkasassin' I guess 🤷🏻
I'll wear it as a badge of honor
Hey! I'm in that list and I have no clue what any of this is about 🙂
What the hell is Tesseract?
Made it!
How the hell am I on this list? I barely post it comment on anything.
I haven't even used this site in a year. Dudes butthurt at lefties and it's so cute
Wow, this dev must be an absolute chud, in which case I'm honored to have triggered them so. Tongue punch my fartbox, loser.
I suppose this means the guy in question prefers velociraptors over people, otherwise I can't explain why am I on the list.
Awe, I didn't make the list 😢
Can we go with "denylist" instead?
What, you got a problem with black lists now? You racist scumbag...
/s 🫶
Fair. I was using the term in the codebase.
Blocklist also works. And it's a single letter difference
I prefer the term africanmericanlist
Didn't make it but 2 other wizards did.
Made it!
Finally, some recognition.
"^hierophante",
"^HistoryLOL",
"^hitstun$",
"^holyclergy$",
"^HomeInvasion$",
Oh, so that's why I can't find my own posts in Tesseract. I'm surprised they didn't block my whole community.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason WHY YSK:
In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
