Db0 discovering the blocklist https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/72685299
Someone pointed out that the developer of the frontend added an explicit hidden and unmodifiably blacklist which includes any and all instances to the left of Kissinger.
EDIT the repository has moved so all previous links are broken unless you update the root of the URL to https://github.com/paulo-roger/tesseract
Lol, you have to look at the commit history: https://github.com/paulo-roger/tesseract/commit/84c1b14c0606b6659d42faf3f47ff5705e2a0072
Shadow banning users, blocking archive sites, it’s a gold mine of liberal authoritarian brain worms.

Uhoh, we’ve been embargoed

Why is Infowars not listed under “fake news” HMMM?
Not knowing that the Git blame log exists because it’s the end of history is peak liberalism
The great thing about open source is that ANYONE can review the code themselves! Puts a bunch of their personal brainworms into the publicly accessible code.
@yogthos@lemmygrad.ml stand proud, you’re on the list!
O7
I like the inclusion of the non-existent hexbear.com as an embargoed instance. Also does this just like, check for users of the same name on these platforms?
Embargoed lmao what’s with the fed language. Idk what’s sadder, cosplaying as an online psy-operative or actually being a fed and not being able to pass for a normal person.
Interesting that he has a secret unmodifiable blacklist for leftist and/or queer instances (blahaj is also on there), and also a Star Trek pic on his github file…
Also, couldn’t someone just fork it and remove the blacklist? Just name it free-tesseract or something so that people have a better option and his efforts are negated.
Heres a fork with the banlist disabled

LMAO will be hilarious if the fork gets more popular
NICE :D

Now that individuals are all grouped together? Even in code base? hmmmmm
couldn’t someone just fork it and remove the blacklist?
Might be better to keep the list, but have the frontend tag each user and instance on it as “Blessed by the Reactionary Tesseract Devs” or something instead of censoring them. LOL.
This seems like something 90% of people would oppose, which I guess is why they’re hiding it. Not difficult to message admins of any tesseract using instances and inform them though, most will migrate to something else because admins choosing to run decentralised communities don’t tend to like the thought of a developer sticking their nose in and meddling at the software level.
Good way to kill your project tbh.
Y’all are shit-talking this, but I just found a bunch of new, fun instances to start checking out. Thanks for your bone-headed support, tesseract!

Congratulations
I’m not listed, I gotta up my game
How many more times do I need to post “death to the zionist regime” and “the dogs of capital deserve more 9/11s” to get some recognition around here?
Literally wtf am I doing wrong. I gotta be more provocative
What does it say that they can’t even keep their blocks together. Or consistent.
And now wondering what they consider advocating violence
Wait, how is that cm user not in spam or spammers? 🤔
Their whole instance is lol https://lem.lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/45721723/21443214
Didn’t they take over a bad instance?
But they’ve got so many accounts they use to spam

Kinda a thing on Voyager too, hexbear isn’t on the instances list and only lets you login/create account if you explicitly type hexbear.net
What’s even left (heh) at that point? Just reddit.world and beehaw? I don’t even know if beehaw exists anymore, tbh.
They blocked lemmy.ml too lol, the main instance run by the developers.
I see beehaw users’ comments occasionally, they’re always getting downvoted and not following their own rule (bee nice)
These projects all die off when they cut off such significant portions of the userbase.
export const EXTREMIST_COMMUNITIES:string[] = []
How do I get on the shit list?
Open a PR I guess
Crazy how this weirdos keep doing that.
Did shrekland expire? Shoulda kept it around just for this, it’s not on
