@shampoobottle I suspect that their technical staff is completely incompetent. Every other site based on the Gab version of mastodon functions way better. Too bad that with all the money they've raised they couldn't get competent developers. I'm sure you can attest to this being on gleasonator. @redneonglow @colonelj
@terryenglish As it turns out, at some point they completely broke incoming images, so ye you'd have to make a Gab account and get put on the FBI's shit list to post at them @redneonglow @colonelj
@redneonglow It would never make it through the Gab filter which maintains a safespace for the boomers there. They can't handle much. @shampoobottle @colonelj
@shampoobottle Hey maybe someday someone will be dumb enough to buy that useless site from him. ๐คทโโ๏ธ @colonelj
@colonelj Hosting is just generally less risky without porn and frankly I don't see the issue with them banning it. It's usually spam. I more take issue with the fact that they clearly allow other forms of spam to run rampant to inflate their numbers. @terryenglish
@a7 Alright then. @shampoobottle @colonelj
@colonelj I will definitely agree that Gab has been treated unfairly in that regard.
@shampoobottle Do I dare look up what guro is? Or will it only result in needing eye bleach? @a7 @colonelj
@pie You shouldn't be because you're nice ๐ค
@colonelj No I do not. The question comes down to legal status again. All instances are bound to follow the laws of their local jurisdiction. If he's concerned that lolicon is going to attract the attention of law enforcement I can understand why he would not want it on the site.
@a7 @shampoobottle @colonelj Gab can't even do the bare minimum for free speech by federating properly with all instances (minus the ones that spam or other technical reasons). They're no better than the cancelodon idiots.
@a7 Want to unsee. ๐ก @shampoobottle @colonelj
@shampoobottle Anime cartoons confuses and enrages the boomers. @colonelj
@colonelj Okay so we're talking about lolicon not child porn so that's one detail omitted. It's questionable legal status in the United States makes it reasonable (at least to me) to remove from the site. I don't see why this excuses the numerous other problems with Gab.
@colonelj I don't believe you.
@colonelj Are people actually attacking him for not allowing child porn?
@colonelj I assume you're making a comparison between what's being said there and Tobra shitting on all decentralized platforms. There's a world of difference there.
@colonelj Disingenuous comparison.
I have moved to terryenglish@blob.cat so please follow me there.
