Seen a lotta posts about how to use CWs and such, haven't yet seen one about person-to-admin-to-server-level moderation/blocking but have seen some discussions where talking about that would clear up some confusion and worries so, here goes.
You have more power here than you did on the other place, both as an individual and as part of a collective, because of how federation works.

New study suggests #monkeypox outbreak may be fueled in part by pre-symptomatic transmission
Though people may be emitting less virus in the earlier stage of infection, when they have very mild or no discernible symptoms, they may at that time be more likely to have contact that could lead to transmission
If you are new to Mastodon coming from the Twitter, here are a few amazing Mastodon features that are NOT ON TWITTER. Enjoy! 🐘
1. Content Warnings CW ⚠️
It allows you to display a warning but hides the content of your post. Here’s a short guide I wrote about it: https://infosec.exchange/@Em0nM4stodon/109282181601490676
2. Slow Mode 😌
In Preferences > Appearance, you can select the option “Slow mode” to hide automatic feed updates. You will then have to click at the top of the timelines to see new posts (ex: “10 new items”).
3. Custom Emojis 
When you write a post (called a toot here), you can select emojis that are custom to your server (called an instance here). In the toot field, click on the 😃 button labelled "Insert emoji" at the bottom (this will vary on mobile apps) to see what’s available there. Some are really neat! 
4. Mastodon is different 
There is no suggestion algorithms here, no promotion, no ads. This is a community. You can be more of your true complex and unique self. Engage with others genuinely. Follow others you like no matter their followers count. Describe yourself and what interests you in your bio, you are not as limited by characters count here.
Be yourself. Leave the toxicity out, it is not valued here. Respect others. Be a kind human. Share what you love. Make friends 
Tiny Mastodon Newbie Tip 🐘: Content Warning (CW) is used quite liberally here. It’s an amazing Mastodon feature! Use it as often as it might be helpful. You can use Content Warning to hide a toot (post) your are writing that: - discusses or displays topics that might disturb other users (ex: violence, nudity, mental health, food, etc) ⚠️ - discusses or displays topics that you think could be annoying or irrelevant to other users (ex: twitter, local politics, very long post, whom-who-shall-not-be-named, etc) 🔕 - discusses spoilers of a tv show, movie, video game, or book 🤯 - hides a joke you want to create a special surprise for! :awesome: HOW TO❓ 1. On desktop, below the toot writing field, click on “CW” in the menu. The button’s icon and label may vary for mobile apps, but it should be there! 2. This will add an extra title field above with “Write your warning here” (or similar label). 3. Write the warning (what people will see) for your toot (ex: “Spoiler Star Trek Discovery Season 10!” or “Discussion of violence:” etc). 4. Write your toot normally in the field “What’s on your mind?” (or similar label) and Publish! 5. People will have to click on “Show More” to see the content of your toot. 6. Magic!✨ #TinyMastodonTip #Mastodon
