I was just wondering how content moderation on Mastodon really works? If individuals (who are obviously prejudiced) are going to decide what is acceptable and what isn't, then this will become another platform where views are censored and only certain narrative is allowed to prevail. In my opinion, we should strive for a platform which allows an absolute freedom, nobody should be kicked out of this portal for their views present in respectable manner. #india

#India is very polarized, I hope this platform doesn't just become an eco-chamber of one set of ideas, it will just defeat the purpose. #India is also a very complex and diverse place, I hope @Gargron doesn't give too much power to any one ideologically inclined individual.

It is very easy to brand certain individuals as Nazi, Fascists, Sanghi, Bhakt, Troll, Savarna, Misogynist. Almost anyone who you disagree with can be shut by these tags. I hope community guidelines are enforced properly.

@Sakari that is exactly what I was tooting about ! if we over do it, mastodon will get bad name , if we dont it gets toxic. so the delicate balance needs more community participation and less prejudice and bias .

@kalyan make it free of abuses. Anonymity should be allowed, but ensure that bots don't capture the space and narrative. Everything else should be fine.
