It seems appropriate that we thank @ruud @jeroen and others responsible for #moderation in mastodon.world instance.

We created our account here uninvited and from the very beginning we received a great #support.

On the very first day some Holocaust deniers tried to troll the account. The moderators reacted immediately and, which is very telling), we actually did not experience anything like this afterwords.

We also got #help when we had technical issues with account verification.

#thankyou

@auschwitzmuseum @ruud thank you for finding your way here too 🙏🏼
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen Very pleased you got the support you needed and glad you're here. Excellent moderation here, I feel very safe and comfortable.
@auschwitzmuseum I am ashamed that we live in a society that makes you feel like you have to give thanks for something that should come naturally -,- WE have to thank YOU for your commitment. - And the admins of course.😏
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen thanks for this. I’ve enjoyed #mastodon since joining, but have been concerned how moderation would work especially given explosive growth.
@auschwitzmuseum Chag Sameach and thank you for preserving memory. #shoah #light

@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen

So pleased to read this. Your work needs to be known as widely as possible. Thank you Mastodon for supporting this account.

@auschwitzmuseum
There is fitting symbolism that @auschwitzmuseum is hosted on the WORLD instance and that deniers are rejected by it. That is very much as it should be. Thank you for preserving the awful memories and thank you to World's administration for welcoming and supporting your mission.
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen It's incredible to be on a social media platform that actually takes content moderation seriously. I'm so glad they were able to not only fix the problem you were having, but also ensures there wouldn't be a problem like that again.
@auschwitzmuseum @jeroen @ruud Thank you for being here. This is one of those posts that makes me wish I had the ability to quote post it for emphasis. I followed you daily on the bird site. #NeverAgain
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen I love that@[email protected] is seamless and non-hyperbolic about social media mediation. We need some calm in this world.
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen
Glad you have such good support, very thankful for the mods.

In memory of my lost sanity when someone close to me made a grossly antisemitic comment and I utterly completely blew my stack and aspirated lettuce, I am following you.

A lot of people where I grew up heard and repeated stuff like that. Then I grew up and learned some history.

Please continue your important work. I will be listening.

@auschwitzmuseum so pleased to see you on mastodon. One of the best social media accounts bar none

@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen

I'm just so confused on how people can be so ignorant that they deny the Holocaust of all things. Search engines are free.

@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen Welcome! You belong here, and your story needs to be told. May your light never be dimmed. I’m not Jewish, but I’m a human being, which is sufficient qualification to recognize that the Holocaust and its horrors need to continue to be taught to future generations. I’m sorry the need for your work exists, but it does, and I’m glad that you're here to do it.
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen I’m so glad you were supported! I was happy to see that the rules for the mastodon.world instance specifically ban conspiracy theorists. Good to see that in action. Keep doing the good work ❤️

I do genealogy as a hobby. Started one for a close long-time friend of mine. It stopped at her grandparents and great-parents. This is in Ancestry. The information came up giving date of birth and date of death for them. All three entries listed date of death :1942, Auschwitz, Poland. She had never told me which relatives the Nazis murdered and I never asked her. I can't put into words how I felt. Numb ins the probably the best, then I cried.
@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen Sorry that happened to you but glad it had a happy ending and worked out ✊

@auschwitzmuseum @ruud @jeroen Good to know ! And I happy to see account like this going on new social media to share the memories of such a important peace of our recent history.

I hope #mastodon communities (users,moderators,administrators,devs, donators...) will work together to build a better future for everyone and succeed where the Big techs have failed.

❤️❤️❤️
