@amgine Agreed, and I wouldn't count those as part of the fediverse, just parallel social networks that happen to use some of the same architecture or standards.

Yes, it's true that my posts are public and that each site can choose who to federate with, but I do believe there's a core consensus — going beyond protocols — that excludes the worst actors. I definitely agree there is a consensus that instances can decide with whom they directly federate, and users should have control of their feeds, communities should have guidance on who may be a member, and decide what appropriate behaviour is for their community. But there is no consensus I am aware of on what constitutes bad actions or who is a bad actor. |
@david_megginson No, they are here. Your toots are likely visible there. Only your instance’s #administrators and #moderators are protecting you from the worst things they are doing.
I hope you are kind to and thank your #admin / #mods often. It reminds me, I have not done so recently enough.
