I cross post to everything except x, but I’m still really confused on people preferring Bluesky’s dubious corporate moderation over like volunteer friends and administrators, who we like… know. And who will alter policy to protect users. Especially queer pals. I’m just really confused.
@hacks4pancakes I think some people believe that Mastodon's moderation model is not ultimately workable, basically because different groups of people have incompatible notions of what discourse is acceptable on what topics, i.e. what should get a CW and what should earn a ban. And ultimately this is too complex a spectrum to be solved by sorting into servers with different norms (especially when in some cases server A doesn't want to federate with server B if they federate with server C). In this view, the Bluesky approach of labeling and composable moderation is ultimately more likely to be workable (because it is more flexible), even if the currently available labelers aren't good yet.
