They’re also not on your instance in the first place. You’re looking at the Global feed. That isn’t content from Firefish.Social, that’s content from elsewhere on the Fediverse. Firefish.Social admins can’t moderate content on another server.
I’m just saying, that’s like buying a window from Lowe’s, installing it in your home, and then being mad at Lowe’s for having a bad view. They can’t control what you see when you use the tool literally designed to look at the outside world.
Maybe, but the complaint seems to be based on a misunderstanding of how federated content works. What they’re describing is literally content not on the instance they’re saying it’s on. Their own screenshot even shows that the content in question is from a different instance than the one they’re using, which to me sounds more like an issue with understanding how the Fediverse works than with Firefish.Social’s moderation ability.
1- Never join the official instances. They always are too big that are almost impossible to moderate.
2- In which timeline did you see those comments? Because if it was global, it’s possible these are unknown servers the admins aren’t aware of. (The trending section is global)

I went to firefish. I made an account. On fire fish I saw anti transgender astroturfing.
Does this mean firefish is free from all douchebaggery?
No.

With all respect, it’s nothing like that.
It’s literally like that. That’s how the Global tab works. You’re seeing off-site content. It may even be off-platform, entirely.
I think your frustration is more with the basic functionality of the Fediverse, in a more general sense, than with FireFish specifically.
That’s far from a good faith interpretation of their complaint.
