It's hard... when a user blocks an instance, the propaganda still shows up when the offending users comment on other instances.
Does it? I thought it muted every user of that instance
A mute is not the same as an outright block.
Muting effectively just means you don't see the instances posts, but you can see the users comments if they are federated with your instance. For example, I have kbin blocked, but I can still interact with kbin users - when they reply to my comments or posts, which they can still do, I simply just don't get a notification for it.
Dessalines doesn't care about stuff like this. Beehaw has been asking for proper moderation tools forever and effectively just told to get fucked every time.
Beehaw is still using version 0.18.4 which will soon celebrate its first birthday. We made countless moderation improvements since then, but of course Beehaw won't get those if they refuse to upgrade.
I see. I guess I just don't go to communities hexbear is interested in
.ml is basically just as bad.
Most instances are totally defederated from Hexbear. They're not my problem at all. My problem is literally the development team and their willingness to not only accept but further the cause of propaganda through their instance's curated biases.
Hopefully Piefed / Mbin / Sublinks will catch up soon
