Nah, I know a bunch of the people on that ban list and they all spread the hoax claiming that Piefed has a hardcoded block list.

See, the censorship list you're talking about doesn't exist. It just blocked auto-import by admins of communities with certain words in the name. So it only affected admins, not users. If you're not an admin, it didn't affect you. I'm an admin, I unchecked the box because I knew what I was doing.

    Well if I'm wrong about how that list worked then I apologize but Rimu also supposedly took code from the fork and failed to attribute it until he was called out about that too. It wasn't only the blocking thing that upset me, it was also the code misappropriation and the childish ban spree.

    You aren't wrong, it's gone through many itterations from the initial block. Even now it's still the initial config hidden to users. Hell Grail is even saying it's still there but only idiots would keep it on. (ironic considering it's Rimu's default and piefed.socials setup)
