X(구 트위터)가 '싫어요' 버튼을 도입한다는 소식입니다. 작성자는 이 기능이 논란성·반대 의견을 억누르고 다수 의견에 동의하지 않으면 알고리즘에 의해 그림자 차단(쉐도우 밴)될 위험이 커진다고 우려합니다. 플랫폼의 피드백 신호 변경이 콘텐츠 노출과 알고리즘 행동에 미칠 영향을 경고하는 내용입니다.

Midjourney의 검열 및 유료 고객 차단에 대한 강한 비판을 제기하는 트윗으로, 작성자는 회사 정책을 '지나치게 잘못된 조치'로 간주하면서도 다른 이들이 모든 결정에 대해 과도하게 트집 잡거나 맹목적으로 옹호하는 모습도 비판하고 있습니다. 커뮤니티·정책 논쟁을 촉발할 수 있는 내용입니다.

it's weird to me that anarchists/anti-authoritarians (in particular) often don't seem to view online moderation as authority

cause it plainly is

can you recall mods? are they representing the interests of a body/community? can you appeal? what does the appeal really signify (any real checks on it)?

it's not a justified hierarchy, in my opinion. but people seem to just pass over it as necessary and not rife with abuse of power

#Authority #Hierarchy #Moderation

As a facilitator, working with both sides of an issue with a group can be hard. Doing so challenges me to practice non-attachment.

what's funny about the 'moderating is a difficult and thankless job' position is that you can simply not do it

and not just you, the mod. us, the body.

"but then xyz would happen.." oh, like it does in real life? go outside, it's full of self-moderation

if you don't like it (on or offline) you can always self-select or make your own echo chamber, walk away from people, etc.

in reality we are all our own moderators

#Moderation

Kleine Nachlese auf 3 Tage Moderationstraining mit Silke Hansen, Maren Braun und Tim Niedernolte am IST-Studieninstitut — btw alleine das schon ein gigantisches Line-up von Profis. 👩🏻‍🏫🎤 Es war eine fantastische Erfahrung angereichert mit wertschätzendem Feedback, das mich noch mal entwickeln hat lassen.

Man munkelt, dass seit diesen drei Tagen neben der Sportmoderation nun auch Produktpräsentationen, Yoga-Kongresse und Kindheitshelden-Pantomime zu meinem Portfolio gehören. 🤭😅

#Moderation

Something I genuinely deeply dislike about #email is that there isn't a way for a list's moderator to mark a message as spam once it has already been delivered to subscribers.
Context: Got hit by another GitHub comment notification masquerading as an official GitHub email.
But this is not unique to GitHub, all the mailing lists I've been on that had a spam problem - or worse, had people posting violent or disgusting images - could only resort to telling subscribers: "Hey, don't open that message from yesterday. I hope you didn't already do it." The whole thing is a pretty glaring #moderation hole.

If I want to have an async development workflow, is there a way to eg. set up (a mailng list on / an instance of) #SourceHut such that it's as resistant to targeted harassment as a more centralized forge / messaging platform?

The strategy of (presumable AI operated) botnet trying to spam #fcz instance with fake accounts (for whatever purpose) is somewhat funny. They somehow figured out, that I am moderator - so the first thing these profiles do is to block me.

Which makes my job extremely easy, as I really can just delete all accounts, which block me (if it is the first thing they do: before posting anything, following anybody, or so). Of course, there is also distinct pattern of weird mail servers they use.

The strategies of our new AI overlords remind me more of "intelligence" of insects, like mosquitos, or so. Dumb, but the problem is persistence of their activity...
