@dansupsir dansup I am not sure why this escalated so quickly and we are now at a point where blocking long-form content is on the table!?
I simply wanted to start a discussion about it 😞

@pfefferleMatthias Pfefferle Not going to lie, but this article* really did hurt, and maybe for the right reason, Pixelfed isn't a universal do-everything platform, it's photo focused.
Your PR just reminded me of that, and I admit, I did get a bit heated, but there is no plans to block long-form content, rather, I think Pixelfed should allow users to filter this at their level, giving them the power to choose levels of federated content they want to see.

@ploum not true, rather, Pixelfed will soon give the options to users on the levels of federated content they want to see.
