i know you’ve all heard it before, but i didn’t catch up, i was honestly a bit surprised when i was browsing and tesseract on dubvee shut down.

8 monthsTesseract was functional but not as beautiful as Photon. I think I’ll stick with Photon.

This sucks, I hope someone forks it before it breaks. Either that or hopefully most of its nice features get ported/added to Photon. So mods don’t have to end up living without them.

Nope. Seriously, no idea what you’re taking about.

I made a post about it a few days ago
Essentially, the guy who makes Tesseract, an open-source Lemmy frontend, burned out and discontinued it and closed his instance.
Yeah, not so nice for just downvoting a post of his though. Fediverse is better off without that kind of toxic behaviour.

as a dev sure. as an admin he had a recent kerfuffle on news, etc, with bans and involvement in some drama around them.

Guy instance banned a bunch of people simply for speaking up in favor of Luigi, before it got clear how many supporters there were. Admin-wise, some questionable decisions. Still he did a lot of good for Lemmy. Shame to lose him.

oh did not know abt those bans. he got me when I posted intolerance of nazis because I was “dehumanizing” them. but yeah. as a dev good! administration was just too much for him.
Was he not aware of the paradox of tolerance and the Nazi bar parable?
Afaik he tolerated no support for calls for violence whatsoever on his instance. Which is his freedom to do as his line of moderating, but obviously brought him into conflict with the beliefs of many on Lemmy

And I so fully support banning calls for violence. in my example (anecdotally) there was no violence just uncomfortable rhetoric. (also he was a mod of news on .world at the time - not just his instance but maybe that’s how it works here? not fully sure.)
If you’re advocating violence against people you arbitrarily deem nazis it doesn’t make you a good guy and you’re likely breaking plenty of laws regardless of jurisdiction. I’m seeing liberals advocating violence against people voting for Trump, that’s pretty dehumanising.
