Edit: For context, @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com discovered that the developer of Tesseract had discretely banned numerous instances and disguised it as a server error. This included more heavily leftist instances, but also blahaj.zone. More recently, it was discovered that they had also been suppressing individual users, phrases, and communities that criticize power tripping on fedi.

Needless to say, I implore non blahaj.zone users to drop the Tesseract client (support for the client has already been dropped for blahaj). So called “liberals” like this who call out “extremism on both sides” are an insult to the values they claim to be upholding.

      True. However, there are still many ways to do it. If anyone reading this is curious, here are a few ways:

      • Find a way to run Linux commands in Windows (WSL, VirtualBox, …);
      • Rewrite the command for PowerShell;
      • Do it manually (visit https://tesseract.dubvee.org/tesseract/api/system/policy, either right click and do “Save As…” or copy all the text, use an online Base64 file decoder, use a tool like 7-Zip to extract the GZip, and change the extension to txt so you can read the file with Notepad).
