    There’s an ideological slant to PieFed for sure, and it’s very much in favor of the left. That could be why maga.place and lemmychan.org use Lemmy and not PieFed.

    PieFed bakes in preferences against left wing groups, and you’ve been launching a crusade against anarchist instances lately. As much as you believe yourself to be left, you’ve done your best to left-punch wherever you can, and have unilaterally made decisions greatly impacting the functionality of PieFed to suit your overwhelmingly liberal views. This isn’t even getting into how you agree with racist conspiracy theories like the idea that China is kidnapping people for organ harvesting.

    Also, it’s nice that you admit that PieFed has an ideological slant and that you do develop PieFed with that in mind, socsa swore up and down that that wasn’t the case for some reason.

    Also, since Rimu permabanned me from Piefed.social at PugJesus’ behest after I critiqued PJ’s views from the left, they won’t see my comment, sadly.

      It’s also very telling they named it noqanon.

      While sounds great weird that would trigger ml warnings as no one would consider qanon that

        Yep, Rimu does the tactic of conflating the left and the right to make their position as a right-wing liberal seem to be left. It’s just rehashed horseshoe theory bullshit.

        The noqanon list and the OP warning sign are two different things.

        The first is a default url blocklist that gets pulled on first start of a Piefed instance and which contains extreme right-wing and mis-information outlets.

        The domain warning sign mentioned in OP is a separate list only manually added to the piefed.social flagship instance.

          This gets back to how poorly designed piefed is and rimus explanations.

          The domain block list having more than qanon and being part of the install while not saying anything about what it actually brings in is poor design choice. Along with it apparently only being disabled by individually checking the list in the ui.

          Rimu made it sound like they were connected in the qanon repo
