Fedilab is also available on f-droid and it doesn't do any silly blocking.

The worst thing of censorship is they always can find some new targets after they have censored their old targets. They do it one by one Until you find out every word you said is illegal, it is too late.

Been looking for a good client. Can you disable the block on Gab? I know the place is a cesspool, but I don't like the idea of missing content because an app developer doesn't like an instance.

There's Husky, a fork of Tusky that allows users connect to Gab.

Thanks, that's good to know.

AFAIK Gab is not federated anymore: they decided to disable communication between other instances some time ago.

As much as I hate Gab, I hate the possible extension of "unwanted content" especially considering Google's possible interests in China. I would not be surprised if next up to be removed are apps that allow access to instances that discuss the Uighurs or 天安门大屠杀 freely.

Gab isn't the only source of hate on the fediverse; there's plenty of diversity in the hate speech to be found on the 'verse.
