@davey_cakes I am for interoperability. That is the underlying principle of the fediverse and how all the Mastodon and non-Mastodon platforms on the fediverse talk to each other.

@Gargron well I would politely suggest that standards of conduct and safety are going to mean more to people than interoperability over the next while.

Perhaps now is a good time to address how to make the out-of-the-box Mastodon experience one where people aren't exposed to white nationalists by default.

You have a chance to do something.

@Gargron more explicitly - Mastodon the company should start directly alerting people to which servers they REALLY need to think about blocking, and needs to do it at the install stage, and afterwards as routine.

@davey_cakes Improving the moderation experience by allowing admins to subscribe to shared blocklists is something we're planning for our next release, 4.4.

Davey

@Gargron I'm aware, but is that largely streamlining an existing practice which people still need to be here a while to understand?

I've used shared blocklists.

I'd like the company to explicitly direct people to block lists of known problem servers, will that happen?

Will we move beyond the likelihood of what happened the DAIR server happening again, where people join Fedi on the promise of how progressive it is, and get put on blast by neonazis?

"Oh we all have them blocked, do you not?"
