stevetex@mozilla.socialJust a Firefox coffee cart hanging out outside of a Berlin Apple Store today. The side of the cart reads:
“Safari is a great browser,
for downloading Firefox.”

FalconMarkSix@tech.lgbtPSA: Google has now begun to roll-out the Ad Topics "feature" onto Android itself. It's not just in Chrome you have to disable the settings. Please #Boost to spread awareness.
If you didn't get the pop-up screen on your Android device (it'll look like the first two screenshots), to opt-out of these settings:
- Go to Settings
- Press on "Google"
- Press on "Ads"
- While you're here, press on the "Delete Advertising ID" button and delete it
- Press on "Ad Privacy"
- Review: "Ad Topics", "App-suggested ads", and "App Measurement". Make sure they are all labelled as "OFF". (This page will look like the third screenshot.)
If you don't see "Ad Privacy" in Step 4 then it means that it hasn't been rolled out to you yet. You might need to wait and check back in a couple of days to see if/when it has been implemented to disable these settings.

I want to start off by saying that the concept of having a shared place where to find a fairly curated blocklist (mostly for blocking the worst, as in literal nazis, CSAM-adjacent instances, etc) is not a bad concept by itself. Most instances have *some* blocks in common and if we want to filter the worst of the worst, as in build a "base" in which you won't accidentally be federating with total assholes, then go for it. If people don't want to be adjacent to a project as such, that's also fair, as long as they're not assholes themselves
I am also not against having safe spaces for minorities - heck, from day one that's been my goal with mint.lgbt, one of my other projects of mine I started 3 years ago already.
However, Are0h, many people who are criticizing your project are not doing it out of the sake of bigoted violence, as quoted from you. The criticisms come from the view that TheBadSpace seems to be pushed aggressively from your part, to the point that it could break the structure of the Fediverse being a decentralized and democratic platform. And it's not because it's only filtering anti-Black instances - it's because your personal biases are seeping into the list, which are not all for the protection of black people. At least, that's the view that's being shared amongst some members of the community.
I do believe your project can still be developed in a way that it respects the structures that the Fediverse and its members are comfortable with. The way I've done it more recently is holding votes on whether moderation decisions are good or not for the community in case they're dubious and mixed. Finally, listen to feedback, even if it may seem extreme for your project. (I'm not saying to listen to people plainly discriminating you, you know what to do in that case)
If you have any questions regarding this post or you want to talk with me regarding this situation, this thread is open.
