Anti-fascist PieFed features

PieFed, a federated social platform, describes a set of features deliberately designed to make the software unappealing to fascists and far-right users. These include a pre-installed blocklist of 3000+ fascist and conspiracy websites, a 4chan screenshot detector, trans-friendly features (pronouns, transphobia reporting, trans flag theme), a sidebar 'Rational Discourse Toolkit' with deradicalization resources, AI content labeling with feed filtering, curated LGBTQ and activist community topics, and robust moderation tools. The author frames these choices as a holistic strategy targeting the conditions that allow fascism to thrive online, drawing on years of disinformation research.
