Predictable and self inflicted. You don't bring Reddit style tactics to a group that largely fled them and not face blowback.

    It's just shocking that they'd create a front end that filters out a bunch of stuff without telling the user. To me, that's not the job of a front end client program. If they want to add additional filtering over the backend, it needs to be directed by the user or at least specifically approved by the user.

    Yes if this had been opt-in. Something that the user had to explicitly enable it. And was thoroughly explained. The worst anyone would have to say about them is that they were overly opinionated. But no one would care beyond that. The reason it's a big thing. It is the way it was hidden and enabled by default. It 100% is a mess of their own making.

    They wanted to be a self appointed moral guardian for all of Lemmy but are themselves immortal because they intentionally hid that they were censoring anyone.
