Do you say you saw something *on* the Fediverse, or *in* the Fediverse? Or something else entirely?There is no correct answer, but pick the one you use the most. Boosts appreciated, I'd love to see a broad range of responses.

@wjmaggos @mike 1. admin & moderator workload is real. reducing harms to users is real.2. moderating false information which may mislead or increase likelihood of harm is not inherently divisive, and is sometimes required by law3. only for people who want to consume misinformation4. impossible to do perfectly, but certainly able to be done well 5. the server you administer publicly blocks 2 servers. this suggests you, along with most service providers, have applied editorial standards.

@wjmaggos @mike >I fear they will take the current consensus positionSome will, some won't. Some will focus not only on misinformation and harassment, but also on the numerous other issues that also warrant intervention to reduce harm.Here's 34 of them: https://connect.iftas.org/library/iftas-documentation/shared-vocabulary-labels/You are free to operate your service exactly as you please.

@wjmaggos @mike Fostering spaces where alternative viewpoints can be responsibly discussed and debated is important, but these spaces also need mechanisms to distinguish between genuinely insightful dissent and inauthentic behaviour that can lead to harm.
