Fediverse

lmao they blocked "🥺👉👈" and "Perchance"

I had no idea the Fediverse was politically charged to the point of pulling shit like this. These kinds of people are like two steps away from making backdoors for the NSA because they think it will make the world a better place

Db0, welcome to the tankie troika 🤝

Apparently https://github.com/asimons04 is @admiralpatrick@lemmy.world / @ptz@dubvee.org.

Admiral Patrick being a crank again. Same guy one-strike permabanned oodles of people for voting wrong on comments about some prick getting shot.

His instance is proudly named after West Virginia. Y'know, the cantankerous gun-toting hillbillies who fought the rest of Virginia to end slavery and fought the army to unionize miners. But we can't go discussing any extremist solutions to societal problems.

proton.me is in THROWAWAY_EMAIL_DOMAINS lol

Apparently you're also a filthy commie that should be Operation Condor'ed if you prefer to use an email provider that doesn't spy on everything you send and receive

Identity politics a.k.a. not centering white male imperial core voices, in the right wing parlance. These people are just nazis. Source: i am the most lazy of the hitler studies experts im not getting one

Amazing how these projects keep killing themselves by alienating huge portions of their userbase. Hard to survive in a FOSS environment by being extremely reactionary.

When feudposting isnt enough... feudcoding. Really sad to see, hope they get better someday soon.

I was so confused, because I was thinking about the OCR thing… https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

Proud to have made the list.

I'd make sure whoever did this isn't allowed to contribute to your fork

That they don't just think they deserve to tell you what you should think, but they should manipulate you to think it?

Tbf my dumb web browser game does this.

It checks if the system language (those "en-us" like strings) is set to Ukrainian or Hebrew. If it is, it'll set the url to something else, effectively redirecting the user.

I don't want zionists and state sanctioned neo-nazis playing my shitty game. Liberals would probably call my arrogance, which I am being arrogant, but frankly I don't think people who go around murdering civilians deserve to play my game!

I'd ban the United States, but I do live there. Besides it's mostly a political statement, and it's dead easy to bypass.

I will remove Ukraine when the war ends though, regardless of the outcome. (Unless I already removed them. I don't quite remember.)

....Maybe I should add TERF island to the ban list lol.

of course it does. all they have is censorship and calling you names.

Tesseract OCR sucks hard anyways. PaddePaddle ocr is infinitely better

How does anyone come to the idea to built a tool to be used in a federated context and hardcode into it which instances are not allowed to be used with it?

However, this is just one person. Maybe the Dev did not expected anyone else to use it and just but the blacklist into it for personal reasons...

I don't understand the term turbolib. This kind of behavior is very much in the conservative vein. Especially the exclusion of trans friendly instances.
