    "Amateur speculation". I've directly replied to many people who have made false conclusions about parts of the code they looked at, mostly notably the claim that continues to persist that lemmy.ml is also defederated out of the box based on a complete misunderstanding of a specific code snippet.

        Saying some are doing amateur speculation is not the same thing as saying anyone who has issues are "amateurs".

          Except that is exactly how it reads.

          ignore everyone else looking at the code because they're amateurs as we're the only professionals here

            Just thought I'd note this. Main beneficiary so far seems to be piefed.ca.

            Right now i don't see any movement in the amount of donations (patreon, liberapay). so i am not kinda skeptical this will end up being meaningful growth.

              I saw it in a post about people getting temp bans for simply stating that EU allies would be right to defend Greenland in case of military action. Might just have been one of several grievances with Reddit at the moment though

                  That's simply not how I read it at all. He's referring to people taking excerpts from the code and running away with long conclusions and motives based in some cases on presuppositions and assuming bad intent.

                    It reads as being upset anyone would dare read it. Especially with replying to the person pointing it out they wouldn't review anything they thought was intentional coded in a particular way.

                    Note this is completely separate from by stance after reading some of the code and stance of the level of it.

                          That was an interesting read.

                          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.

                            I wonder, would these users still use PieFed if they have seen its codebase? Maybe it can be one day but right now it's 100% not production-grade software. Nonsensical hardcoded bans and blocks everywhere. >1000 lines of Python in a single file. Uses regex to parse HTML. The list goes on...

                              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.

                              No, just one purpose, the second one.

                                  As i asked there, which is the 4chan image blocking as the checks there simply say images from 4chan cause reputation loss.

                                  I know you are amazing at promoting the fediverse but feels odd to see you ignore all the issues people bring up about piefed

                                    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.

                                    I'm doing this because I love doing it. Often that means the boring bits like documentation or config or general finesse get left out. I'm trying to paint with broad strokes in the hope that when others see what I'm trying to do they'll join in and fill in the details.

                                          Woah, I haven't heard about this. Are those temp bans on specific subreddits or a site-wide ban for not being pro-Trump?
