Yet another open-source software company has turned its back on the principles that drive free software.Tom Parker (Reclaim the Net)

Absolute nothingburger.
From F-Droid's statement (emphasis mine):
We respect Tusky’s decision to block mentioned website; it’s their right to introduce restrictions like these into their software. We also respect Fedilab’s decision not to hardcode a login block; instead they are actively working on making it easier to block certain domains in the app itself and thus giving users more power to moderate which content they’ll see. If people disagree with F-Droid’s decision not to flag Fedilab, a idea is to develop a decentralized tag system based on package IDs which allow third-party servers to share their own warnings with their community.
They're not blocking any fediverse apps that you can use to connect to any server.
Feel free to use any Lemmy or Mastodon client to connect to any hate-filled instances your hateful little heart desires. If you don't like that some apps have built-in blocklists, use different apps, or modify them. That's the beauty of open source.
Do what you want, just don't expect the rest of the world to amorally do it for you. This is perfectly in keeping with open-source philosophy.

Diane Abbott is the latest Labour MP to be suspended as Keir Starmer attempts to reassert his grip on backbenchersMartin Rowson (The Guardian)
Unspeakably evil acts that must not go unpunished
Had to go to the dentist today to have a new crown put on. They x-Ray it before putting it on, and then when the dentist comes in he says he notices a small cavity on the tooth abutting the new crown.
They had to x-ray the tooth when they cleaned it up after taking the old crown off. Why didn’t he “notice” it then (3 weeks ago).
I feel like I’m being played.
@slamy I feel like it’s, “hey let’s do this, so I can charge the insurance co.”
Last year was, “this is an old filling (metal). It’s starting to cause a small crack from years of use so before it gets too bad, let’s drill it out and put in a nice new, composite filling.
Never had any problems with it prior to that, but now I get periodic sensitivity to hot & cold. Thanks doc!😡
Today in Labor History July 18, 1936: Beginning of Spanish coup and rise of fascist leader, Francisco Franco, and Catalonian uprising against the coup, marking the beginning of the Spanish war against fascism. The anarchosyndicalist union, CNT, went to the democratically-elected Republican Catalan government to request arms, but were denied. So, activists raided the armories and gun shops, as well as arms being stored on ships in harbor. They also seized cars and plated them with armor and built homemade explosives. Rebels in Madrid were defeated early, but anarchists seized control of most of Catalunya and Aragon. And within days, Republican forces had control of nearly all of Catalunya, Aragon, Valencia, Castille-La Mancha, Murcia, Andalucia, Asturias and Cantabria, as well as much of Basque Country. The war lasted over two and a half years, and ended in defeat for the Republicans, with hundreds of thousands of deaths on both sides (including roughly 300,000 civilians), as well as hundreds of thousands of refugees. It also led to a fascist dictatorship, with hundreds of thousands more imprisoned, tortured, exiled, and/or murdered, lasting until Franco’s death in 1975.
