Tesseract is a web client for Lemmy that was found to be secretly and arbitrarily blocking users, communities and even entire instances. You can see if you’re one of the kool kidz by running

curl -s https://tesseract.dubvee.org/tesseract/api/system/policy | base64 -d | gunzip > policy.json

and grepping your name / instance. Further details can be found in this post.

The poem above is adapted from Bertolt Brecht’s The Burning of the Books, which can be read here. If you would rather read it in the original German, go here.

    “^carotte$” is in the user regexes but i’m not in the user list… hmmm.

    looking at the list i’m wondering how is it possible that any content from lemmy showed up on tesseract lol. why did they block “article is paywalled”???

      Because the loser behind this hates people that are not okay with the enshittification of the internet, of course!

      The whole thing screams he is not okay with conflict-So he hides anything that he considers conflictive. There is no war in Ba Sing Se moment.
