Acorn, a platform for growing and managing communities on decentralized infrastructure -- new from Blacksky!

https://blackskyweb.xyz/introducing-acorn-community-infrastructure-that-grows-with-you/

"It started, as most things do at Blacksky, with moderation."

There's so much to like about Blacksky that this aspect doesn't always get the attention it should, but think about it: how many other social networks have started with a focus on moderation, as opposed to initially ignoring it and then trying to play catch-up?

"Building out this system made clear how deeply embedded moderation is into every piece of infrastructure."

Again, compare-and-contrast with other social networks. And not just centralized social networks! How many fediverse platforms treat moderation as core functionality that's a first-class part of the infrastructure?

"As the community grew, its needs changed and our infrastructure grew to fit those needs. Community need guided every step."

There's a lot to learn here!

@thenexusofprivacy mmm. I find interesting the part of understanding the position of an account in the community in order to moderate. Particularly in big communities.
