I don't understand, what instance uses this? If they filter the listed words does that mean posts containing them won't show? That would make conversations on Lemmy incoherent with gaps and wipe out probably 50% of the content?

I wonder if im on the blocklist (I hope im important enough to be :3)

At least one of your alts did. Sad that I didnt make it ☹️

Damn 😔

I can't believe I missed my chance at the mad mod ban list EGOT 😥

I made the list! I'm famous!

None of this is in the source code. It’s downloaded at runtime from a file nobody has ever looked at.

diabolical, thanks for all your work with this

Yeahhhh, that's pretty much malware at this point

absolutely is, true! they can change that file at any time to include anything they wanted

A lot of that domain list is real spam defence. It filters conservatism as well as communism. “It targets the left” doesn’t survive the data and I’m not going to pretend it does.

Based retraction. Credit where it's due. (Not that you can read this, ironically).

I can't even.

I am honestly not sure how to feel, discovering I somehow made it into that list.

You should be proud, I'm a bit disappointed I'm not on the list

I looked at the block list and I’m not in it.

I think my conservative community gets filtered out though.

They didn't block SatansMaggotyCumFart? Maybe your name is "straight" enough for them hahahaha

I think it’s mostly because I’m known for well-thought out contributions to the communities I post in.

Take my upvote, you deserve it for the sheer gall of this one.

That's true, though I don't expect bigots to take the time to think through many things like that lol

Is this that cesspit of a community which is basically just squatting the name out of petty spite

I love it!

I think I got banned from there

Some megamod mass banned me from a bunch of random communities which is annoying, basically reddit behaviour

Some megamod mass banned me from a bunch of random communities which is annoying

Same.

Especially because from my instance, I can't conveniently block communities that I'm banned from. The block button disappears when banned. I have to go into my settings and manually add the name of the community to my blocklist.

So, yeah, it's pretty annoying when a community I've never even heard of before pops up in my feed and I'm already banned from it, so then I have to open up the manual block list settings...

I've been banned from unrelated communities for having an opinion one of their mods didn't like. I'd understand if it was because I posted in that community. At this point people are banning me because my mod log has allegations of transphobia and stuff (the admin of my instance I believe is trans, we've discussed things, they've helped me speak about certain subjects in a gentle manner, I don't have any ill will towards transgender people, it's just terminology I used was seen as offensive) which is just a weird cycle of being banned because I have a "mark" on me from what was likely a misunderstanding or overzealous mod years ago, or me discussing things from a theological perspective and it wasn't actually what I believed politically either.

I've (apparently) got on one power mod's bad side just by downvoting a few of their AI slop posts.

Or..... Tesseract behavior! Amirite?

Isn't tesseract a frontend for lemmy?

Apparently a private, racist one

I'm on the list!!! Does that mean I'm not racist?

What an asshole

Lemmy people try not to censor people you disagree with challenge (impossible)

well, Patrick sure lost A LOT of faithpoints with this shit.
