@aral @davidculley @liaizon Our staff operate both instances, in accordance with the same policies.

Follower migration can take some time as it requires the cooperation of the various servers involved, though you may lose followers if the destination server has blocked some servers you have followers on, or is blocked by some servers you have followers on.

@aral @bitchboss @precariousmind @haubles All of our moderation is done by humans, apart from a couple of non-AI rules to reduce spam. Reports, appeals, and emails are all reviewed and processed by our staff.
@theUnicorn @hilandovergaard Our position on the live feeds is here, but in short, we do not believe it is a good user experience: https://mastodon.social/@staff/115849914607258480
@ThomasKdot When we refer to trusted flaggers here, we are actually referring to Mastodon users who file a lot of high quality reports. They're ordinary users who contribute a lot of effort to making the network nicer for everyone else!
@charlesdelavalleepoussin The iran hashtag is usable in your post. We're not quite sure why your screenshot does not show it as usable, there are no restrictions set on it.
@SuperMoosie @wjmaggos We are granting access to everyone who has asked us for it.

@64bithero Search is not limited to hashtags, and can help you find things to follow. Note that these feeds as seen from here likely differ significantly from feeds you see on your instance.

We recognize these feeds are useful on smaller servers, they are just not particularly useful on ours.

@joergba We recommend searching for topics of interest of hashtags. However, if you would like access to live feeds we can add you to it.

@sam We can grant access to the live feeds for anyone who wants it.

https://www.fediscovery.org/ is particularly intended to help ensure small instances will be able to find content without having to bear the load of consuming a full relay with larger servers.
