The extension shinigami eyes is back.

Quick context: the extension allows you to see which profiles are supportive or transphobic and it wasn’t updated for 2 years.

I was worried it was abandoned. Hopefully we can get Ecosia and Lemmy supported and have it expanded it to cover racist/sexist profiles soon. I would like to donate to the developer if I could.

It is my favourite Firefox extension because it would protect you from seeing all the hate online and prevent unintentionally supporting a slimy transphobe😡 and it literally reveals to you people’s true colours.

This seems like a dystopic tool for exerting social control. Better not step outside the lines, or the algorithm will make you the wrong color. Will this comment itself turn me red?

It’s a reporting system used by the community. It’s no different from getting banned by being toxic on the internet.

Free speech doesn’t give others the right to put vulnerable people closer to genocide.

You know what ? I have absolutely no faith in the community when these arguments are discussed. I've seen too many often people labelled as "transphobic" or "nazist" by someone just because they were not agreeing with something or had different ideas.

It is different, in that this doesn't even ban anyone. It's little different from just a group chat where people tell reach other "hey, this chick is a terf, you might wanna block her"

If you have the ability, please flag me red in your system.

It wouldn't pass moderation, because you haven't said anything transphobic

[–] cholesterol@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

To anyone who might be moderating a report over me in this comment chain: I am pretty confident that among my many opinions on all sorts of things are some you would label transphobic.

I'm also strongly against what you're doing with this extension. I think therefore I deserve to be labeled as one of the 'bad people'.

Ok? If you want to get flagged, say something awful and transphobic or link to a comment where you did. Nobody is gonna flag you just because you're against the concept of this extension lmao
