I'm not sure I understand, disable access to the blocklists? That's up to the frontend Tesseract, it doesn't interact with lemmy or piefed. It's the frontend that is developed independently from either choosing not to display posts depending on the dev's weird list.
As for piefed, the main dev has his own strongly opinionated lists that he maintains. Most of them can be disabled by the admins who set up a piefed instance.
And tankies aren't rw.
That too of course
I meant as in, that those who ""develop"" the crap frontend, can no longer access whatever enables them to develop it. If that's on Lemmy's devs, then that's there.
I find it problematic if that were possible on one hand, but on another, the time is always to fight fascism.
Oh, that's not really thing in open-source. The source being public means anyone can work on it. There are certain restrictions in terms of monetizing that are put in place by licensing but you can't forbid individual people from working with, rewriting or redistributing the code (for good reason).
Fair point. I suppose deplatforming is best, then, promoting the good frontends and not mentioning the bad ones.
You absolutely can put restrictions on distribution of the code. that's literally the premise of GPL licenses, the restriction being that you must provide the source code if you use/make changes.
