I'm just saying, that's like buying a window from Lowe's, installing it in your home, and then being mad at Lowe's for having a bad view. They can't control what you see when you use the tool literally designed to look at the outside world.
With all respect, it's nothing like that.
It's literally like that. That's how the Global tab works. You're seeing off-site content. It may even be off-platform, entirely.
I think your frustration is more with the basic functionality of the Fediverse, in a more general sense, than with FireFish specifically.
That's far from a good faith interpretation of their complaint.
Maybe, but the complaint seems to be based on a misunderstanding of how federated content works. What they're describing is literally content not on the instance they're saying it's on. Their own screenshot even shows that the content in question is from a different instance than the one they're using, which to me sounds more like an issue with understanding how the Fediverse works than with Firefish.Social's moderation ability.
The question is, if there are instances that are full of transphobic content, and they're reported, does firefish defederate them. If they do, the view will improve. Although, global feeds are never very useful.
"Firefish" doesn't defederate from anything because it's just a set of software. The specific instance that that user visited might not defederate from right wing instances, but other firefish instances do.
I think they're taking about Firefish's default instance, rather than the software.
