    Okay. It's still unclear to me why piracy was not picked up by default. It's a very big comm.

    Anyhow, good luck on the merge request! Would be great to let the admin decide what to block instead of the weirdly random selection of comms and words on the list now.

    Not block. Just karma-devalue. I'm gonna rename the variable to something like "unwanted reputation sources". If an admin doesn't want people farming rep by posting porn, they can put porn on the list. That's not blocking, it's just a data filter for admin eyes only.

      The search menu on a piefed instance isn't going to find and federate new communities. It has never worked like that.

      That's what I thought. Thanks for confirming.

        So there's an "Add remote community" button that you use to individually federate comms. You may only see this logged in.

        Or if you manually put in the url as it would be seen from that piefed instance, it will federate that way.

        It won't populate the added communities with new content AFTER federation though until they have a local subscriber.

          So there are two purposes for this "bad list"

          • for filtering which communities to federate with in the beginning
          • to calculate user reputation score

          correct?

          The federation filtering is blocking IMO. It affects what comms users of the instance can find (via search).

          Anyway maybe in Your PR You should make a separately configurable list for each purpose. I don't see a reason why it should be the same list.

            Yes. So? Piefed.ca is receiving the bump here. Other instances have turned it off.

            You know Rimu made a thread in !piefed_meta@piefed.social so you can ask questions or express concerns.

            Because it's a piefed feature set.

            Based on rimus responses here and elsewhere they do not seem interested in feedback.

            Even in their comment linking to a thread saying they welcome it, they were attacking someone providing it

                  And https://lemmy.world/comment/21861362 which leads to

                  https://piefed.social/comment/9670365

                  Where both calls anyone but them looking at the code amateurs and can't understand people wouldn't provide feedback if thought bad things in code were purposely done as so many projects will do that

                  There’s no need to listen to rumors and amateur speculation when we’re right here and happy to help. Come on in, the water’s fine!

                    I've been on the microblogging side of the fediverse for some time (the misskey style forks), but really started to miss forum style discussion. 8 joined Lemmy and realized that a huge portion of comments simply weren't displaying on that instance, so I moved to Piefed and am really happy with it so far. There's a lot of features that I like.

                        The 3 posts I made on reddit promoting the Fediverse and PieFed got over 300,000 views together.

                        More people getting involved in fedigrow could see much higher numbers, but let's not spam.

                              Seems like piefed should fix a lot of that. For some of it, at least make it configurable and not hard coded. But that blocked user stuff seems like a real problem.

                                        Yeah I’m reading that in other replies. Still you would put this in configs, for which you could have templates that come with certain defaults populated, rather than hard coding like this.

                                          Notice the quote from them specifically saying everyone but us are amateurs.

                                          He isn't specifically "calling out" anyone directly. All he says here is that the stuff people are complaining about here have been on piefed and not hidden since day zero.

                                          Again he's linking to the thread calling out others for looking at the code.

                                          And again most are pointing out how terrible the code is and how odd it is for some of the features to exist.
