Perchance I can join the list 🥺?👉👈
In all seriousness: how did they think it was a good idea to create a blacklist when a sizable chunk of the Fediverse is so against external interference in general? Did they not see this coming?
In all fairness many lemmy mods are assclowns and ban for no reason similarly.

the question mark only means the first emoji is optional. If you explicitly add it the RegExp unfortunately doesn't match it anymore and you will forever be a rightist or whatever

Why i'm not in the list? So unfair. 😔
love how literally everyone on lemmy is clowning on tesseract and that mofo
Got tesserekt lmao
Its one of those moments which just makes you really happy to be here
Just know that everyone on that list is a violent extremist including me
hey you wanna eat some random shit
At this point they should just have a whitelist, that's a hell of a list! There's some users I recognise from my instance who are chill so I can't imagine how they ended up on this list.
Goddamn I'm not just banned as a user, I'm banned as a specific userRegex. That makes me 2x more extremist than the average banned user.
Get on my level you losers.

I don't get it. Is this some personal vendetta the dev has? Have they really been in this many internet arguments? Where did this list come about and why?
Here's their full explanation: https://lemmy.world/post/49817942
It's pretty long and includes some insightful details about implementation (making the blocklist's usage at the discretion of the instance admin though not transparent of its contents and defaulting it to enabled) but this quote boils down the underlying sentiment pretty well:
“These are all rough edges of the threadiverse which I am attempting to round off so we might actually be able to retain some level headed people instead of scraping the bottom of the barrel by being a dumping ground for people rejected by civil society."
When you examine the list, by and large, it's pretty reasonable. Lots of false news, state propaganda, spammers, etc. But also the entire lemmy.blahaj.zone instance (where many of lemmy's trans denizens call home). We're included in what the lead developer describes as "bottom of the barrel" "people rejected by civil society."
Though I do fear the backlash. You've got a bunch of malicious spammers, hate-mongers and blackhat state actors who now have an open window to cause a lot of harm (harassment & general sowing of discontent) with the convenient smoke screen of upset trans folks who it can be blamed on.
Really? I'm malicious spammer, hate-monger or blackhat state actor? News to me, but good to know.

Don't worry I'm on that list too. I'm just a grumpy reddit refugee. Apparently I'm an extreme violent leftist terrorist, so
¯\(ツ)/¯
I know, I think it's funny. But someone has to call out the guy who's agreeing with Admiral Patrick and always seems to have a space/star trek themed name. Either an excellent shit poster that I get to set up, or it's one of their buddies/alts.

I'll give a short description of the long post.
also, I have to call him not just a dumbass but a malicious dumbass.
"Someone leaked the list. Why am I on it??"
A: The list was never hidden just not advertised (lest people game it). I also could have encrypted it, but I merely compressed it for efficiency. If you're on the list, then one of the 10 reasons above applies.
the file in question was placed obscurely. updated without directly calling out what it was. and published without notifying users.
seems a lot of effort went into obfuscating the true purpose of the file.
while on the subject of obfuscation. he claimed he "compressed it for efficiency".
he compressed it, then base64 encoded it. why? why compress it to only expand the size of the file by encoding it??
@ptz@dubvee.org is a dumbass and a shitty dev if he thinks any of the bullshit he said was worth the time it took to say it.

That's fucked up. And he's the self-appointed "nice" [secret]police? Yikes.

some personal vendetta
Seems like it's hubris / arrogance - a poorly considered attempt to create some kind of ideal social experience.
They thought they could covertly silence leftists and trans people. Par for the course with bigoted fascists.

I'm not on the list. But I'm banned from Reddit, so I got that going for me, which is nice.
Hell yea fam. I checked the other day and my banned account is still a mod on numerous subs I modded. Nice to know my homies left me there.
I left reddit before they started extreme ban hammer , and i didn't make the tesseract list. Wtf am i even doing with my life?

Seriously, I wanted to open a PR to add myself to the list, but the fucker took the repo offline because he couldn't handle the backlash. Wussy.
My internet poisoned brain trying to figure out what permutation of pussy starts with w
Woman’s pussy
Unless I'm stupid and can't read it does appear I am infact on the list. Honestly I'm not even surprised given my bloodthirsty, but c'mon I have some good fucken shit post comments sometimes let folks decide if my particular breed of bloodlusted madness is acceptable or not ya fucken weak ass pussies.

I think most of the people on the blocklist are not people I want to talk to. But you can fuck off if you're going to put that shit in a public client. Let people manage what they want to see by themselves.
I recognized a few names on there as brain dead trolls or politically extreme zealots. I'm sure some are fine and maybe just got on the devs nerves for something petty or isolated, but either way you're right, let people manage their shit. Tired of people thinking they can nanny everyone else or tell others what to do or think or feel.
Edit:just to add, I also know one person on the list outside of Lemmy comments and they are a great person. They probably had one angry comment and the Dev took exception to that.

I still wonder what it is I said/posted that did it. Was it the Luigi pictures? The guillotine images? Or my relentless disdain for all things Microslop?

Disappointment when I realized I wasnt on the list, but that's my own fault for not posting enough. Atleast I got Reddit banned on my 15 year old account for promoting violence.
Also got a bunch of FB bans back when I used it. One time for calling someone a pigeon.

Funny thing is, an awful lot of actually dangerous extremists won’t be on that list, because they don’t post the shit they’re doing on the Internet.
