    A lemmy frontend, the guy developing it put in a shadowban list hiding away popular trans and leftist users/communities.

      I’m so confused because I’m like a liberal gun owner who hates the Democratic party but loves Democracy, and somehow my username is in the regex.

        You didn’t state you like the Republicans nor the current version called MAGAs, so you’re certainly a leftist

        Liberal gun owner? Yeah, he hates that shit for some reason. I think he’s basically all “if you don’t agree with every decision made by the good guys on the West Wing, you’re toxcick!”

        If you’re to the left of Kissinger, you’re a “leftist” to the kind of people who think secret shadowban lists which are dynamically fetched from an external server are a good thing.

        That fellow said he doesn’t like violence and hate. Maybe you qualified because of your gun ownership.

      I’m not trans or leftist and I’m on the list. I rarely discuss politics here anyway. I mostly talk about tech or post memes, so it seems more like a list of people the dev doesn’t like for no reason in particular.
