 @ramsey @jerry @derickr @ilijastuden @Gargron At the moment we mostly can't even see it happening, due to the ways the current form of Mastodon is designed. It's also ridiculous to say that instead of implementing the feature(s) that have been requested *by the targets of Mastodon harassment* is not the right thing to do, but rather, we should change the soul of man. So much easier than implementing a feature or updating the protocol implementation for greater agency to good-faith users. 4 comments
 @ramsey @jpaskaruk @jerry @derickr @ilijastuden @Gargron It's all about increasing the cost of being an asshole. That can be done through both technical and social means, and they can be reinforcing. But both are necessary. @Crell @ramsey @jerry @derickr @ilijastuden @Gargron Silly me, I thought it was about listening to users who are being harassed and taking our cues from them. They've asked for one feature at least that seems like a very good idea to me - the ability to have only people you follow able to reply to you. It's 2024; we can do that. As I see it, it would involve an update to the protocol that rejected reply attempts, and have the originating server not keep the toot. Send in the freedom bros...  @jpaskaruk @Crell @jerry @derickr @ilijastuden @Gargron We’re not arguing with you. We’re agreeing. |
