I could understand hardcoded blacklists if Tesseract was meant as a frontend for a Lemmy instance tailored for a specific purpose, and not intended for general use. But this, to DDOS a website because the developer is a whiny baby who can’t take criticism? This is a new low. This is disgusting, and damaging for the Lemmyverse as whole.


I’m referring to the Web0 manifesto coined by Aral Balkan.
web0 is the decentralised web. In other words, web0 is web3 without all the corporate right-libertarian Silicon Valley bullshit.


Web0 is the way to go, not Web3.


A frontend should be a frontend. The decisions of what to blacklist should be up to the frontend’s user. Stupid decision on the developer’s part.


I once went on a date with a Russian girl. Later I found her Pinterest profile that featured, among other things, pictures of Russian soldiers trampling on Pride flags, Elon Musk and Andrew Tate. Later I stumbled onto her Tinder profile where the description read “PS. I’m a fan of Andrew Tate”.
So I didn’t only dodge a bullet, but a whole clip.
These news make me want to ask her “well, what do you think of Andrew Tate now?”


There was a revelation on the news that Finland has been using Palantir’s technology for over a decade. Really shameful, we should follow Spain in this.
Thank you for the information!


This is so satisfying.


Well, from a technical standpoint I am more prepared as an instance admin compared to Summer 2023. We’re running on powerful dedicated hardware after all.


Just read that he was a Trump-supporting Republican, I understand why you called him an asshole.
And here in Finland this guy is all ears when he hears that Iran needs a new Ayatollah. 
“Aave” is “ghost” in Finnish.


Tobacco industry boss: smoking two packs a day is not addiction.



Germany’s user count is nice.

That’s true, there’s enough porn and shock content found elsewhere.


Exactly!
Okay, I say that is a lot more concise definition for what you’re aiming for. When a website declares to be for “free speech”, it carries a certain connotation these days. Look what Twitter has become after it got bought by Elon Musk and turned into a “free speech website” for example. And good that a line has been drawn so that bigotry isn’t allowed.
