We should award everyone on the list with a badge next to their username the same way new users show up with a chick next to theirs.

(I am not currently on the list and I am slightly salty about it)

Hm, maybe I'll use my fork of tesseract to add a shiny badge next to those names instead

I work with computers and I have no idea what I am looking at here. Anyone have some context?

[–] Daxter101@lemmy.blahaj.zone 62 points 5 days ago (2 children)

It's not computers, it's the latest drama here in the Fediverse.

Big frontend called Tessarect did a sneaky.

They made a hidden shadow-ban list of instances, users, and phrases, keeping it secret from users and admins by not including it in the open source code and instead loading it at runtime, and added in there all non-centrist (instances, users, and phrases) they could think of. They also lied about it, by claiming it to be a technical issue, when any user looked for the banned instances from the front-end, instead of calling it what it is, a targeted exclusion.

Essentially, hidden censorship, and sliminess.

To the degree that some people, (like OP here), have taken it as a badge of honor, that they are among the ones banned by name, in that list.

And some other people, are definitely not jealous.

If I post trans memes monthly and study das kapital every day, will I make it to the list next year? I don't want to un-disappoint my parents!

I am both glad and sad I'm not on the list. UwU

From the looks of the list, basically nobody I can recognize, the people behind the list ( if it wasn't just the dev alone ) really has a hard on for a lot of people.

Same thing for website as well. A lot of sites that have either some genAI features or are about genAI/genAI tools or are genAI slop coded to the extreme. Actually fine with that because fuck genAI. But also gumroad, bit(dot)ly, wixsite, ceilingsanddryliningsupplies(dot)co(dot)uk ( literally looks like a completely innocent businesses website ), another innocent looking store ( distinctive Chesterfields ( furniture ) ), linktree, google forms & gemeni, and a lot more are also on the list.

The list feels all over the place and as nutty as can be.

[–] grillgamesh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 5 days ago (2 children)

what the heck is this?

I leave for a few days and the memes have changed from beans to...... this.?

[–] Limitless_screaming@kbin.earth 27 points 5 days ago (4 children)

There's a popular frontend for Lemmy called "Tesseract". About a week ago the dev pushed an apparently malicious update with a block list which contains lots of leftist (as in even slightly left leaning) communities and users.

OP searched for and found his username in that block list.

The file OP searched in is "policy.json", which doesn't exist in the source code. The command pulls the content of the url decodes it from base64, unzips it and puts the content in policy.json. Which means the source code obfuscates the file by default.

(the only file called "policy" I could find in the source code is a .dat file which has the encoded data).

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 9 points 4 days ago

lots of leftist

Apparently they just blocked whoever didn't agree with the devs, it's mainly leftists but there are some rightist too, they blocked the word "Enlightened centrist" so the devs are for sure enlightened centrists and blocked whoever isn't

I wondered why I was getting less interaction recently 🤣.

[–] Salamence@mander.xyz 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

lenin-tea Looks like someone isnt a big fan of leftist articles, lol

But it was probably because of the feddit-dbzero drama post lmao

[–] Daxter101@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 5 days ago

Omfg stop showing off! I'm getting jealous, I'm almost certainly not in there, and I'm feeling left out!
