You can turn ‘toxic mode’ on and enable all the hidden posts, comments and users.

    As far as I‘ve understood, „toxic mode“ only turns off some of the filters, not all.

    Also:

    • The dev‘s definition of toxic is far from my own
    • Filtering belongs in the backend, not the fronted and should be configured by the instance admin and the individual user. We already have that in the form of moderation tools and blocks. If we wanted arbitrary third parties to dictate what we can see, we could have stayed on reddit.

    What a shitty name for not blocking content.

    It should also be the default.

    There are some legitimate blocks in there to my understanding, the problem is they were/are mixed in with all the random "this hurts my feelings" blocks so it taints the whole thing

    If there were opt in 'spammers' and 'trolls' lists it would be fine. The main problem is it being opt out and hidden, with it being a combination of those things plus 'people I don't like' being secondary.
