Exactly. Some don’t use tankie instances, PieFed doesn’t suit me. And again, one of my gripes with PieFed is their stance towards a social credit score.
PieFed works the same way that Lemmy does. The software is freely available to anyone that wants to download and set up their own instances.
That’s what I was mentioning with Lemmy, the software is developed by Tankies and they run their own instance (Lemmy.ml) but anyone is free to download the software and run their own server, and that’s how you have .world, .zip, hilariouschaos.com, etc.
It’s the exact same with PieFed. The guy who runs fedinsfw.app is in no way affiliated with the creators of PieFed or any other instances. He just downloaded and installed the software.
So do you block every PieFed instance that is federated with your home instance? How do you tell which is which? They both use the ActivityPub protocol and interact together. In fact, how do you know if I’m on a Lemmy instance or PieFed instance right now?
Why anti-Piefed?
Probably a variation of misinformation about some configurable, off by default settings: https://piefed.zip/c/fediverse/p/1005977/piefed-admin-settings-that-allow-to-enable-or-disable-content-filters-they-are-disabled-by
I don’t support their social credit score system, against shadowbanning, and it’s an Israeli supremists instance.
Wait, what?
Piefed.social literally had the Palestine flag as a logo a few weeks ago
Which instance are you referring to? Case in point, lemmy is made by rabid tankies, but you don’t have to use a tankie instance.

But specifically you mention “an isreali supremecy instance”. Which instance are you referring to? Our discussion is around fedinsfw.app
PieFed. I’m under the impression that fedinsfw is under the PieFed umbrella. Am I wrong in that?

And I choose not to support PieFed. I’m OK with lemmy, I’m okay with tankies, I’m OK with porn. But damnit, I have standards!
