The misinformation that will be spread here once Mastodon implements reply limiting is gonna be astronomical....🤦♂️
People already don't want you to shut down their misinformation campaigns and will berate you. I can only imagine how bad it's gonna be when we literally can't shut misinformation down...😩
THIS is a reason to be critical about Mastodon. They don't really understand the gravity of the features they're implementing...😳
totally agree. reply limiting shouldn't exist, replies should be ranked ala reddit and the norm should be no admin blocks unless the person is being abusive.
@damagecontrolblog @wjmaggos @BeAware What if someone deliberately provokes others (even making themselves as visible as possible) then hides behind the thing? I've seen this happen quite a few times.
@olives @wjmaggos @BeAware Seems like a block would called for. Not sure how the ability to reply to someone else would make things better in that situation...
