@stux Not to add yet another task to your list but would it help to add this information prominently to the about page as part of the instance policies? (As an educational device.)

e.g., Something along the lines of: “If you don’t want to hear from someone, please block or mute them. The ‘report’ feature is for reporting abuse only. We define abuse as listed in the server terms here <link>”

@aral @stux Some customizable text in a popup before confirming the report would be nice!

@lefractal @stux Or maybe even a rewording of the standard text to make it clearer?

@aral
You're assuming people bother reading the server terms.

@jeannie Haha, I’ve been around far too long to assume something like that :) But some people do. So it’s better than nothing. And the others you can then simply refer to with a link so it’s less effort in the future.

@jeannie @aral I have a feeling posting every now and than has a little more impact 💝

But maybe it's a goood idea in the server rules! Since people now need to agree to them before signin up
