[–] bobsnq@reddthat.com 5 points 13 hours ago (3 children) Keep seeing posts about this, can someone give me the tl;dr on what the tesseract stuff is about permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] RedSeries@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 13 hours ago (1 child) Someone made a frontend for Lemmy called Tesseract. This person added a default-on non-comitted list of users, communities, and instances that frontend would block regardless of your own instance or account settings (unless you were a mod or admin). This was done under the guise of wanting a "normal" experience for new users. This was never disclosed to users who would use the frontend. Meanwhile, the blocklist (which is hosted separately and downloaded by the app when used to avoid instances removing the blocklist for their copy of the frontend) reads like a personal-grievance diary. A lot of people are rightfully really upset that this was done and not disclosed. The creator doubled down and is continuing to add people to the list and showing their whole ass to everyone. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] EonNShadow@pawb.social 14 points 8 hours ago The dev proceeded to ragequit Lemmy, post a manifesto, and add a script that attempts to DDOS another instance into the client as a last "fuck you". Good riddance. permalink fedilink source parent [–] MrNesser@lemmy.world 1 point 13 hours ago (1 child) From what i have gleaned some guy built a lemmy app and released it but when he was critisised he shadowbanned people or whole instances. Please someone give more information i'm sure that isnt quite right permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 7 points 13 hours ago (1 child) The bans were added discretely by the tesseract dev. It was noticed and pointed out by another dev. Lots of people checked to see if they were banned. Some were angry...that they weren't on the list. The tesseract dev then had a hissy fit and walked off in a huff...again. Apparently he's walked off before. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DanceMomsSavedMe@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 hours ago I hope he stays gone this time. permalink fedilink source parent [–] mountainRadish@lemmy.world 0 points 10 hours ago What is tesseract!?
