Gregory's Serverin SocialCG we had demos of people reinventing Grindr but with ActivityPub. cool, I guess, but what about abuse? what about building systems of consent? little energy for those things.

 @ariadne so, the current story is per-instance mod teams plus between-server blocks. We probably need better ootb support for shared blocklists, so new sites don't get brigaded by Nazis. We probably also need better shared metrics, and I'd like to see more Bayesian filtering to catch harassing content before it happens. Anyway, do you think there are other structures we need?  @evan we donβt need any of that. what we need is the ability for users to *opt in* to interactions with others, rather than having everything thrown in your face until you smack the block button. diaspora gets this right. |
if the goal of the fediverse is actually to build a platform for techies to shitpost, fine, but own it. stop talking about it going mainstream, because it will never go mainstream without some sort of real trust and safety story. it just wonβt.
