Thanks for pointing this out. I am not that active on masto, but I am from the Boston area, so this might be the kick I need to check out that side of the fediverse. I lived in Somerville for 10 years before more recently moving to the burbs. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else in this country these days.
For those out there poking the code, please disclose responsibly! Don’t just make a public post about a security vulnerability, reach out to the devs first to give them a chance to create a fix.
It’s a little known fact that we actually previously had an NSFW piefed instance for a week or two to do testing. Some of the features that were included to help instances like that were the disclaimer screen that comes up before any content page loads (this site has NSFW content…etc.). Also, I know some code was added to make some common NSFW hosting sites work better (as an example, there is some special code to deal with redgifs embeds).
The last thing that comes to mind is to allow admins to specify countries for which NSFW content is blocked (based on IP address). This was added in response to admins wanting to deal with content restrictions like the UK have and are sadly becoming more common across the globe.
It’s been a pretty heroic effort from @nykula@piefed.social. Really well done and much appreciated.
I find it funny when this happens. Also, I have definitely learned about bugs via these memes. It’s kind of like painting dicks around potholes to get them filled faster.
I feel the same. I’m going to be a bit self-centered and quote myself from the piefed matrix chat:
I like lemmy. I still use, run communities on, and donate to lemmy instances.
Different threadiverse implementations just means different features available to people looking for them, and a bigger, more diverse threadiverse is a better one.
Where are you even seeing this in PieFed? This is a glyph in the feather font that we do use for our symbols, but we don’t actually use that symbol anywhere in the codebase.
IIRC that I extra PieFed code is because the daily games that get posted to that community were constantly being collapsed into crossposts. It really hurt the visibility of the most recent post, kind of defeating the purpose of the community.
You are using piefed, so in the web ui you can click the three dot menu and select the remind me option. This isn’t in the api though, so it wouldn’t be in a third-party app unless they implemented it separately.
