loving the website redesign

@PurpCat been wondering about Akkoma tbh. For right now though, at least glitch-soc is building out some of the stuff that vanilla masto is lacking

@tchambers there is no question that meta is incapable of properly moderating their platforms. You are telling your users that someone(s) must get hurt before you will do anything. Moderation is never simply reactive, there is also a pro-active element to it as well. And we have overwhelming evidence that federation with meta will cause harm to people commonly targeted for harassment and abuse. This breaks the first item of the Mastodon Server Covenant.

@tchambers @tchambers Folks are not protected if you federate with an instance run by a company that is incapable of moderating its platform.

Either you're saying that people will be hurt, or you're telling people that to be safe they shouldn't use your server. An open network means that people should be safe throughout the space. Here's your forewarning on what is to come. Now that you are armed with this information, please do the right thing for your users. https://www.vice.com/en/article/dy33ww/facebook-anti-trans-harassment
