       Fellow mastodon moderators, there is study looking for additional participants! It might be interesting for you to participate, it's about mastodon and the shaping of new or improved moderation tools.If you have opinions about this, and would like to participate in this study hosted by Zhilin Zhang (From the University of Oxford), please check out and fill in the following form: https://forms.office.com/e/Kjkz00bDmPI believe that your input can be very valuable to them, there also is a compensation of ~€35 euro upon completion. Posting this because Zhilin asked me if I knew any other people who might would be willing to participate, and I thought this would be the best way to get the word out :) He was very pleasant to work with and I found the two hours to go over really quickly, finding out that I have a lot more opinions about this subject than I thought I would've had.Also just to note, other than a participant I'm not affiliated with this study in any other way 🐕 #MastoAdmin

       @Purple@woof.tech Lots of Microsoft tracking on that site, sadly. Reading the information on that page you don't get some money as compensation, you get an Amazon gift card? I would highly recommend asking mr Zhang to reconsider his software (and gift store) choices if he wants to hear voices from people that actually care about free software.As a small aside, it reads like mr Zhang thinks Mastodon is equivalent to the Fediverse at large.
