"It's a bug" is also a very convenient excuse for a lot of behaviors from the usual companies...
- serial_dev 4y agoIt's a convenient excuse that IMO can actually be the truth, even if I am aware of the Hunter laptop and other censorship (sorry, disinformation prevention) cases the company had. I can see how some shady content had a similar URL/behavior that accidentally got this flagged (though I'm not a mastodon expert, so I might be wrong). I'd wait a day to see if the problem gets fixed. Even if they fix it, we will never know if it was a real bug or they hoped there wouldn't be backlash for this "feature".
