How do I know whether my instance has these filters applied or not? And if rimu is putting "deliberately misleading error messages", how can I be sure of anything?
Yeah, as a developer if you ever catch yourself thinking "my software should lie to the user", probably take a step back and reconsider.
I'm on your instance. I never encountered any of the filters mentioned in this thread.
You can always the details on !home@piefed.zip to be sure, the admins are quite reactive.
I was hoping to see a page with the list of instance rules. Mastodon and PixelFed seem to have one.
The code of conduct is linked in the About page showed at the bottom of the page
