Hi Dan, I understand that the decentralized blacklist loading mechanism is already implemented, and I have a question regarding that, how is it that people are supposed to see a user is blacklisted in the hive.blog interface after they follow a certain blacklist?
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
It'll show up the same way as the old ones, with a number beside the name of the account (the number is the number of blacklists they follow that the account is on). I've checked how well this is working yet though, but should have time to do so soon.
it doesn't seem to be working at all
Also, I just discovered an apparent bug in the code, when I blacklist a user the system automatically unfollows it, I dont think it should do that unless I mute the user.
Also, and even more interestingly, if you then follow the user again, it will unblacklist it................
The people a user follows and the people in a blacklist should be independent.
It's a known issue and the code in question was entirely rewritten, but the new code hasn't been fully vetted yet, as I recall, so not yet merged in: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/hivemind/-/merge_requests/396
Ah ok, also, I just found another bug, not sure if this is also known,
a user can only be blacklisted (x)or muted, namely, if you blacklist it, then mute it it becomes unblacklisted, if you then blacklist it becomes unmuted.
Do you have an approximate ETA for when the functionality will be available?
as things are, as per above the system is totally flawed, and the marks of blacklisted people dont even show, so curators are flying blind.
Yes, it's known, there was a miscommunication with the implementer of the code, he's fixed it and testing it on his local system now. Likely will be fixed on Monday I suppose.
