It can be taken out if, 1, you know it exists (is it documented?), 2, you know how to program (is it configurable through the normal instance setup or do you have to sift through the code and then maintain your own fork with it removed?). Sure seems like being able to take it out is a side effect of it being open source and was not intended to be configurable. If that’s your bar then any feature you don’t like in any fediverse platform “can be taken out.” You’re talking as if it was explicitly made to be taken out.
Also, it doesn’t just detect 4chan pictures. It MASSIVELY overblocks. This is Lemmy’s slur filter blocking “fire removedant” but on steroids. Tell me again how Pifed is the “anti authoritarian” Lemmy.

You don’t need your own fork, all of those filters are editable in the admin settings.
I’m on piefed.zip, I can comment “This” just fine:

It is public knowledge. Not sure about the documentation level.
No, I think it can removed in the administration settings of an instance.
