PieFed has done it once again, this time adding 'warning' labels for opposing ideological perspectives, well at least one; Can't find any warnings for fascism or capitalism ๐Ÿค”

This can be demonstrated here: https://piefed.social/c/globalnews/p/1697164/sudan-civil-war-spills-over-into-neighboring-chad-peoples-dispatch

It's also very telling they named it noqanon.

While sounds great weird that would trigger ml warnings as no one would consider qanon that

The noqanon list and the OP warning sign are two different things.

The first is a default url blocklist that gets pulled on first start of a Piefed instance and which contains extreme right-wing and mis-information outlets.

The domain warning sign mentioned in OP is a separate list only manually added to the piefed.social flagship instance.

This gets back to how poorly designed piefed is and rimus explanations.

The domain block list having more than qanon and being part of the install while not saying anything about what it actually brings in is poor design choice. Along with it apparently only being disabled by individually checking the list in the ui.

Rimu made it sound like they were connected in the qanon repo

Yep, Rimu does the tactic of conflating the left and the right to make their position as a right-wing liberal seem to be left. It's just rehashed horseshoe theory bullshit.
