Amazing! This will fund:
- Better blocklist synchronisation
- Integrating the #FediMod Fires Protocol (https://fires.fedimod.org), which I only just learned about but adds things like adviseries, retractions and end-of-life 'tombstones' to blocklisted entities
- Remote media storage 🎉 aka Fediverse Auxiliary Servers (https://github.com/mastodon/fediverse_auxiliary_service_provider_specifications) to "allow sharing storage and media processing between servers" - which could have a huge impact in reducing server costs and carbon footprint.
- "Automated content detection" thru these Auxiliary Servers.
- End-to-end encryption for private messages 🎉.
- €90k of funding for other Fediverse projects "wanting to implement support for the two new Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider specifications"

What insights a mute from external users on social.fedicate.org?

1. Spammy Content
2. Non-English Content (We can't moderate things easily when it's not our native language)
3. AI

Bans are given out for bigots & illegal content.

A thought from us on open registration...

We understand that open registration removes the overhead of having to approve like, every account. Buuuuut it also cuts way down on harassment, spam accounts, scam accounts. And tbh it lets you grow your instance (if that's your goal) at a rate you can sustain, right?

We operate on an invite only model, BC we are all busy and being a mod / admin takes work. But it also means we can keep up with mod stuffs. And better, we actually KNOW the ppl on our instance. They're not faceless ppl and we're not faceless mods.

So like... please consider closed / approval based registration, vet your users. It'll be a better time for all of us.

Errata for the new year:

"Can we trust your reports for our instance?"

Well. Maybe.

So, we do check each report for rules violations. We don't just trust other instances' reports. So IF your instance is similar to ours and IF you trust our checks then yes, probs.

Rules:

"You banned me / my instance and I want to argue my case!"

Okie. You can do that. But we reserve the right to post the interactions (minus doxy stuff) publicly.

Mensch auf literatur.social, wenn Du einen Post von hier meldest, dann würde es mir die Moderation ungemein erleichtern, wenn Du den Grund dazu schreiben könntest.

From now on, whenever I report a new remote troll, I'm going to include "please moderate your signups" in the report.

I might add "Or pay me for doing your moderation work." at some later point.

U nas w fedi tego nie ma :) 🤔

Anyone know what fediverse.blog is? Received some spam comments from them and the entire site just looks like adspam federating outward.
