solution: comment visibility on ios-safari

some months ago I mentioned I couldn’t see comments in safari but could in fx (on ios). figured it out now: the 1Blocker “disable comments” filter sweepingly includes lemmy comment field types, but for some reason only on safari and not fx (despite apple forcing engine as they do)

the fix: add awful.systems as an allowed domain inside 1Blocker config

the fuck 1Blocker. later today I’ll see if adding awful.systems to my adblocker’s allowlist fixes some of the problems I’ve been seeing in safari. thanks for sharing this fix!

I'm guessing it's some kind of generic/wide property filter. it was a weird enough thing that I honestly did not think of it until I was literally poking at something else entirely then went "huh, hold on"

not helped by how fucking feedback-obtuse mobile devices have been made to be in their default state :||||

I'll contact the developer to see if they can maybe finetune it for lemmy instance frontends, since it's definitely a bit overt
