As part of the devs farewell message on their site, they have included malicious code to make each visitor sends 2,000 requests to the dbzer0 servers in an attempt to DDOS and take the instance offline.

I see. As someone who has been in said communities, I must ask: were all trans and leftist communities blocked, or were only the niche hang-outs of specific individuals blocked? Because in my experience, trans and leftist spaces are rarely what they are named for, and are instead hangout spaces for specific online cliques. "Trans communities" may ban all trans people except 5 individuals, for example, and still call themselves a "trans" community.

You said that "they" got "called out for supporting fascists"? What fascists did they support? Are you saying that the author of the blacklist is a fascist based on his banning trans and leftist communities, or are you saying that they're Trump supporters or something like that?

I'm afraid this is not enough context, my apologies.

That sounds like complete BS.

They locked out the entirety of blahaj and db0 and also the phrase "censoring me".

They also had a violent objection to beans

And quokk.au, afaik the only other trans instance alongside Blahaj.

No apologies necessary, I know the gist of what's going on but not the details. This looks to be the start of it https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/72685299

I didn't even know what tesseract was last week 😄

NoScript blocks this link, so given the very limited context, I think I'll skip this link for now.
