Anyone who used tesseract experiencing a very different Lemmy now?
Hell yea, I’m on it.
They should just add everyone to the list. Be inclusive, y’kno?
This blocklist is so extensive, it feels like they just need the phone number of the one person they’re trying to contact
I wonder how many times Tesseract users saw me post a high resolution image of a guillotine before I was added to the list
hint: it’s not open source.
(the list is behind a wget call, and not editable; the proj lead is a butthurt douche who wouldn’t merge a pr anyway…)
Isn’t it in a gziped file within the repo tho?
policy.dat?i thought the code pulled from a hardcoded url and used that? maybe the url is a raw hit in the repo, “same same” but … i don’t reckon he was too open to merges regardless.
Well there’s no real benefit to compressing and encoding the file in the repo, it’s a JSON config. Other than obfuscation, of course.
I don’t appear to be in the list, but I am fairly milk toast.
Proud to say I made the list. Trans rights are human rights, and Billionaires need to be put to death :D. Have a good one, guys.
iirc my entry was because i “dehumanized” nazis. lol.
Where do you see reasoning?
I’m on the list… i feel honored
How do you check if you’re on this list? Asking for a friend.
EDIT: Just checked the list. I’m not on it 🫤
Out of loop here what is this list?
[Tesseract is a] Lemmy Frontend / UI that instances can use instead of the default. They had a secret shadow ban / block list for keyword, users, communities, instances that were not accessible via the admin UI and only pulled down at runtime so you could not see them in the source code before using it and could not modify it because no one knew about it.
stolen from another comment here
Was it only sending hashes of the list elements?
As far as I can tell it’s a base64 encoded gziped json file in the repo.
Thank you.
I will use that list as inspiration to generate my next alts 👉👈

thx
wait where is the list. I wanna be in it, take me in!
Here is the link.
Tap for spoiler
You are in the list!! I am jealous now :(
Awwww yissss, I am in the block list of an app I have never heard of before!
Sorry, you’re not allowed to read it unless you’re good at computers.
I don’t have access to one currently and I want to really see the list!!
Finally, a list everybody want to be on!
I’d absolutely be on the list if I’d just post more often.
Streisand Effect of cool people
I’ve been in the woods for a week, wtf is tessaract and what is happening?

At this point we should specify which list. Because, you know, that other list. Or do we just call that “in the files”?
That’s just in the files.
I’m not on it either… C’mon my username was right there.
