PSA: Uninstall Funkwhale NOW.

Funkwhale has gone off the deep end and is now trying to add a hardcoded music blocklist which will apply to songs in your personal music library - not just instances that host far-right podcasts, or the like. Because nothing is more anti-fascist than... not allowing people to listen to their own music on their own computers??? (What in the performative dictatorial nonsense?!)

This is an incredibly dangerous idea - not only is it a centralised blocklist that applies to your personal media collection and cannot be opted out of, it's also AUTO-GENERATED FROM FUCKING WIKIDATA(!) (The dev insists that outsourcing to Wikidata makes it decentralised and immune to problems, btw...)
