It’s a mod tool. Hexbear and Lemmygrad are default blocked and instance admins have to manually unblock them if they want to federate. Further, if someone blocks a user, lemmy users can reply to the account but it won’t show on Piefed for anyone, not just the user.
I never said they were blocked by default, though. You’re taking issue with Lemmy.ml as a test instance despite Lemmy lacking in the tools for censorship PieFed has.
I have 3 accounts, and have only been actively censored by Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works (outside of one Lemmy.zip community run by a racist that closed the comm down after I called them out on it).
Here’s a snippet from the code regarding blocking comments if a phrase is set to blocked. Credit to @edie@lemmy.encryptionin.space for finding this.
Are any phrases set to blocked by default?
No, not that I know of. It’s empty by default.

But there’s no phrases that are blocked by default because that’s what we were talking about.

I’m taking offense to my donations to Lemmy being used to run this echo chamber.
If you dislike echo chambers why pick one by the lemmy.world admins???
They don’t really block much stuff.
They love doing it. There’s even been times they’ve specifically made rules specifically for that. Their top mod especially
And pivoting it to a worse echo chamber that makes it far easier to cultivate an echo chamber.
Do you have other accounts with other instances to see if that’s true or not?
I do.
