@freemo @trinsec @khird While the suggestion itself looks reasonable in itself, i wonder if this is a good addition or just a reaction to bad behaviour from the outside.
With what happened lately, i suggest to take it slow. Pressure should not be the reason for policy changes, only reason.
Throwing around the word “bannable” could have an adverse effect. I did experience someone saying they were abused for talking about a topic. I do not know if that person acted in good or bad faith, but i think that there are people who have trouble to talk about loaded topics, and the change might affect them.
To not have any chilling effects, would it not be better to not list loaded topics, but concentrate on civility? People respecting each other seems to be our strength, i worry if we lose that if we let others mandate what we have to write.
@Romaq Yeah. And unfortunately, but also understandably, open-source tends to be somewhat lacking in the antimalware department. So that really only leaves proprietary, which all have their own issues.

Twitter users are all like “I don’t know if I can trust a bunch of career sysadmins and network engineers to run their own Mastodon instances” — meanwhile Elon is just running around the Twitter data center going “what’s this button do?”
@freemo Unless i'm misunderstanding what this means
@mastodonusercount I wonder what's with the ups-and-downs every other hour?
Out of curiosity, does anyone know what mastodon.social (as well as maybe other instances') hardware is like?
@PeaRidgePost @mastodonusercount A real expert indeed. He has prior experience with his cars.

literature shitpost
alternate history? back in my day, it was called revisionism
@derickflorian @rysiek The true option.
@rmerriam (Either that or it's not supported)
@skanman thankyou :)
I agree, I certainly do like the more relaxed pace of this place, makes for better conversations!
@angelobottone youre probably being sarcastic but i actually didnt know mastodon supported animated emoji. cool though.
