I think a lot of this is "comply in advance" in a new (political) climate for tech companies. Path of least resistance for them RN. But also i think robust self-moderation tools for users is really the only scalable answer. "Community Notes" are helpful, but can be gamed. Just give me the power to block/mute whatever content, topics, people or businesses that i don't want to see. It's not perfect, but Bluesky's "composable moderation" has kept a lot of dumb crap and idiots out of my feed. Not perfect, labelers can (and have been) abused. But i prefer this to Mastodon's instance-based moderation, which is more like posting on a local BBS where the sysop has the power to moderate :) |07|02/|10\|03/ |11j0hnny a1pha |03\|10/|02\|07 --- Talisman v0.54-dev (Linux/x86_64) * Origin: Space Junk!
