  • My guess since both apps doing this model have immediately removed their own advertising is that they are exempt from the api pricing for a few months.

    I can’t see either dev cutting off their revenue stream (app ads) and then eating the api cost on the same day. Especially if users swarm to them as they are the last standing 3rd party app on their platform. Individuals wouldn’t take on that kind of liability.


  • Please don’t feed them data about fediverse instances by querying new domain names.

    I don’t believe searching for domains will feed them data as such. You can crawl the lemmyverse starting from a few known servers. It’s how awesome-lemmy-instances works.

    what is exactly the purpose of knowing who is blocked by whom?

    Before joining an instance it seemed useful to get an idea of their moderation policy. It just gives transparency as to that instance’s policies, as well insight into how the rest of the fediverse views that instance.

    I wasn’t aware it was created by known bad actors and it wasn’t my intention to promote them. It was just a useful tool.
