Welcome to the Fediverse. It's nice here!

Remember to report horrible things, your admins and mods can and will deal with it.

Don't try to "grow your brand" here, the Fedi doesn't really work like that. Virality doesn't really happen. It's nice!

Connect with people. Make new friendships. Just be, in a place that respects you as a human.

@aurynn Hi, I'm new here. How does moderation work? What's stopping someone to open an unmoderated instance and that leaking to all the rest? (sorry for the newbie questions...)

@Dubikan Hey, there's no problem with newbie questions, I'm happy to help. 🙂

Moderation is on a per-instance level, so admins can block those sorts of "free speech" and hostile/bigoted servers from being able to interact with their users at all.

There's a culture (around the hashtag FediBlock) of making sure that those hostile instances are caught and blocked quickly.
