In light of the dev silently blacklisting blahaj.zone, many of its users and several other instances, we have removed tesseract from the available lemmy front ends we offer.

Wonder if we should ask the devs of Lemmy and Piefed to somehow disable access to them, as it's far-right idiots doing this... they may be tankies or liberals, but they're not brownshirt fascists.

I'm not sure I understand, disable access to the blocklists? That's up to the frontend Tesseract, it doesn't interact with lemmy or piefed. It's the frontend that is developed independently from either choosing not to display posts depending on the dev's weird list.

As for piefed, the main dev has his own strongly opinionated lists that he maintains. Most of them can be disabled by the admins who set up a piefed instance.

That too of course blobcat, sipsmile

I meant as in, that those who ""develop"" the crap frontend, can no longer access whatever enables them to develop it. If that's on Lemmy's devs, then that's there.

I find it problematic if that were possible on one hand, but on another, the time is always to fight fascism.

Oh, that's not really thing in open-source. The source being public means anyone can work on it. There are certain restrictions in terms of monetizing that are put in place by licensing but you can't forbid individual people from working with, rewriting or redistributing the code (for good reason).

Fair point. I suppose deplatforming is best, then, promoting the good frontends and not mentioning the bad ones.

As this unfolds across the comms the dev is doublefucked in FOSS anyway.
