...and it's _your_ reply that gets hidden behind a curtain (for me), not @pluma's. Is it not the same for you?..
Yes, also shows her post tagged to mine. Which just says NSFW hidden behind a curtain but still show NSFW anyway. Don't see the point in this. Just give us the tools to hide stuff on our feed only if we deem necessary. I hate seeing curtains on any post, not just mine.

I'd just like to add that all of your links are up and running, not sure why you cannot access one of them, but it's not Peepeth's fault. I'm on the website and your peeps are untagged (as you didn't tag them yourself), only the replies are rolled up. What app are you using?
I'm using Peepeth with Coinbase Wallet formally Toshi to browse. I was able to access the link via someone else's phone using a Google search. My phone flags up as invalid SSL. That's security right?

Think they are trying to straddle the edge between the far left and far right. There is a market for people who want to have a place to post original content and have an easy way of gathering ETH by microblog. We get it FB and Twitter are without a doubt bias and pushing......
This should not be about far left or far right. However ANY political comment is judged to be either category. The subject is about censorship. Any subject. Most censorship is about either politics, religion or NSFW content. The first two can be self regulated.

I think covering up a peep because some people can't control their feelings or to protect someone's feelings is a little offsetting. We are adults not children. If I don't like a post I keep it moving by ignoring it.
Agreed.

Peepeth.com is an unapologetically moderated platform. However, the politics hashtag is not an example of that. Peepeth asks you add a politics hashtag to your own peeps as a courtesy to others. It's up to you if you wish to comply with that convention.
That may be the case now but yesterday someone tagged my post with the hash tag politics. The post was a hyperlink. The hyperlink now seems to be censored as I cannot access the link through the app. If you think you won't like it don't click the link. No censorship needed.

@pluma gives a good explanation here of the filtered front-end/open back-end of Peepeth. Best way I can describe it: Human brains have a natural negativity bias. We're trying to make positive/useful/considerate/good-intentioned posts the path of least resistance. But... /1
How people react to a post is subjective. The question is who has the right to decide which posts are politically upsetting and which are not? Negativity bias works for the censor and the censored. Who gets to be the thought police and what are the qualifications needed?
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
1) there have been some misconceptions about that. posts on this front-end can be hidden/removed, but the peeps themselves are forever on the blockchain and can't be deleted from there. eventually, another front-end can be created to display any and all peeps from the data store.
I don't see this as a misconception. It quite clearly states that this platform is uncencorable. The post was a link which I now cannot access. If you search on Google you will get results that may upset or trigger people. Yet they are uncensored.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
it was the one i saw that came up in the firehose, but i hadn't seen your other posts. there is a lot of activity right now, and things are moving by rather quickly. again, i apologize if you feel that i singled you out. it wasn't my intention to do so.
Apology excepted. I came to Peepeth as I was being heavily censored on Twitter. Peepeth was advertised as an uncensored platform. Yet days after signing, I was getting labelled as political and my posts covered up. I jumped to the conclusion I was being targeted. Sorry back.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
not sure if serious or trolling. 😂
Well, just curious why you would pick out that paticular post as political when all my other posts are mostly political? You are the only person so far to do it.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
it is, but i am also free to tag your post as political. to be fair to you, anyone who replies to me is hidden, but not to your original post, as it wasn't tagged. :)
Ok, so as you can see I have tagged one of your peeps NSFW. Doesn't feel great does it when someone interferes with your posts. Sorry, not interested. I may not like cookery but wouldn't censor their subject. You can always mute.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
i use both interchangeably. payin' respects to both of you. 🙏

@pluma Ummm thought the political hash tag was supposed to be self regulated?

It is not just Trump that believes this , but any Trump supporter that has ever posted on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

Cryptocurrency is always in the news for the wrong reasons when it comes to MSN.
I've had an idea. Why doesn't Peepeth give out free introductory crash hats and Michelin man suits so their is no chance of them being hurt or triggered in the outside world as well as the Peepeth world?

The politics hashtag is self-imposed out of courtesy to others, and the radioactive sign is an attempt at humor :)
@bevan, Appreciate you tackling the subject head on. Unlike other platforms. Sometimes the truth hurts and you cannot shield people from what they might encounter in the outside world. By trying to do this, you are probably doing them a disservice. Humour is good.
What is the point of Peepeth if you turn it into Twitter?
Replying to @sevvie (0xb9a7922eec475605498ba3c1f7f0aca98585f30a)
Will you be replacing the text on the dApp library? This seems misleading based on what you've said in this video.
You will have to decide whether it is more important not to upset or trigger people, or more important to protect the content of serious users who have come here to avoid the censorship of other platforms for the alleged same reasons. Triggered people should stay with Twitter.
Replying to @jrmoreau (0xb4f6ae2cca59f0ea3fb2559e32c61df753bb542a)
In reality, users should be given every tool to eliminate content from their feed they don't want to engage with. This is a start. I'm sure Bevan will iterate on this solution.
That would be the obvious and best solution. Otherwise you have a situation where the censor can be biased toward a certain policital group, only censoring the political posts they don't like.
Replying to @Kahuku (0x116ecfa7d9ce41aa36d61fb4ea25f04689787176)
I posted this to the Fulcrum site but you will not see it there. Apparently I have been muted for whatever reason by David Seaman. David must love this platform where he can simply mute his critics.
Thing is, you sound like a troll.
Replying to @jrmoreau (0xb4f6ae2cca59f0ea3fb2559e32c61df753bb542a)
You're not entitled to attention. Bevan is creating a solution for people who want to engage within certain boundaries, rather than have their emotions and attention manipulated by politics and the like. Some people will choose to view your content. That's your audience.
It seems the decision has already been made about Fulcrum without discussion. They have tagged political posts with the radiation symbol. Who decides which subjects are worthy of manipulating people's attention and emotions? Who are the thought police?
It seems that Fulcrum (David Seaman) is being cesored for their political posts. They are a political news group! Should we not have the right to decide what we want to read, seeing as I willingly followed them?

Paying to 'peep' is an interesting concept - and obviously required to write to the blockchain - but I wonder how willing people will be when the novelty wears off? Will #peepeth use lower in times of high transaction fees?
I think it will become routine. The method of payment is fairly painless. Additionally I feel my peeps are being read. I would rarely get responses from Twitter. I get responses every day on Peepeth.
MSN needs to switch to a monthly or minimum of a weekly Bitcoin report.At the moment it's like reading a report written by somebody with Alzheimer's.

well, if it doesn't...consider it another buying opp!
I'm happy with that but it need to show some stability until September.
MSN cryptocurrency news is laughable. Don't try to second guess a volitile currency like Bitcoin. It is either up or down. You have a fifty percent chance of getting it right. Don't keep reporting that it is the end of the world. That's not news!
Bitcoin really needs to stay above $7000.
Notice what happens when Bitcoin hits the Goldilocks zone at 7000 USD.
Today it seems that Bitcoin has been deliberately held below 5000 GBP
https://www.fool.co.uk/investing/2018/08/17/bitcoin-investors-are-panicking-after-50-price-fall-this-year/ This is absolutely misleading information. Bitcoin briefly hit a high of nearly $20000 in December last year. It has been uniformly volitile ever since.
@fulcrum Is it me, or are the elite conducting a mass sell off of Bitcoin to artificially keep down the price? This seems to coincide with MSN reports of the eventual demise of the Crypto. Is this even legal?
https://www.thesun.co.uk/money/7026138/cryptocurrency-bitcoin-crash-suicide-fears/. Mainstream media embarrassingly changes it's tune every day when it comes to Bitcoin. Tomorrow it will be the best thing since sliced bread.
@fulcrum Just signed up to peep and I'm loving it. 😁
This is great, I can talk about Pizzagate, Donald Trump and Alex Jones without being shadow banned. Bye Twitter!
