Whenever you see the words “ads”, “cryptocurrency”, “blockchain”, “web 3”, or “AI”, just replace them with “farts” and you’ll know whether you want them or not.

“Can the fediverse survive without farts?”

Yes, perfectly well.

“Will farts replace people?”

I hope not.

“The European Commission embraces farts.”

That’s unfortunate.

“This new startup wants to improve your life with farts.”

I’m good, thanks.

@damon OK then.

@damon
Didn't you want them to include PhotoDNA in their moderating process?

@damon
Exactly. Nobody's stopping you from anything. So... what exactly do you expect?
I was under the impression you're asking other instance moderators to use proprietary tools.

PhotoDNA is made by Microsoft.

Not acceptable.

For me this alone would constitute a sufficient reason to ditch an instance.

You can run your own instance with your own rules and de-federate from those you find harmful.

You can always try to volunteer as a moderator elsewhere and help them.
