@robb

I just realized you're also a #moderator on social.lol. That's cool.

To save your time and my time I've decided to post two images so that it's super clear we're talking about the same thing.

Here you can now see the difference as I placed both images next to each other. One of these #Mastodon sites got a "More from" while the other one(the one I'm from) is lacking such a thing.

Am I correct that I can do nothing about this? I can't fix this issue, right?

🌏 🌍 🌎 Our #moderator community is beginning the work of translating shared resources in to a number of languages to support volunteers around the world.

We'd love your help!

#Deutsch and #한국어 are top asks, but we'd be grateful for any and all contributions on our crowd-sourced translation project: crowdin.com/project/dtsp

Add a translation, proof-read what's been added, request more languages - all input welcome!

The 2024 Fediverse #Moderator Survey is live!

Last year we had 130+ responses, we’d love to hear from more of you this year! Even if you are a one-person server, your admin/mod experience helps us prioritise what we work on.

The survey takes a few minutes, all answers optional, all platforms welcome. 50 participants will receive a $20 gift card.

Please note, the preview card will not work, use the link above

Did you know we run a community for Fediverse moderators?

It was inspired by our Moderator Needs Assessment, especially this powerful quote from one moderator;

“together we are stronger."

We couldn’t agree more, which is why we launched IFTAS Connect, a new community of practice designed specifically for Fediverse moderators.

@moderation

1/3 🧵 #Fediverse #Moderator

Hi all, we’re IFTAS (Independent Federated Trust & Safety), a nonprofit supporting trust and safety on the open social web.

We do this by convening the community of practice; providing tools and services; and serving as a group purchaser for the #moderator community.

If you’re an admin, moderator, community manager, or moderation tools developer on the Fediverse, we want to hear from you!

Fediverse Admins we need your help!

We are seeking funding to continue work on our opt-in content classifier to detect and mitigate CSAM.

We are building a privacy-preserving service along with support for #moderator trauma associated with exposure to illegal content.

We need to demonstrate support for this activity. Fill out this short form to record your interest in using the service: cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view

Continued thread

…In Friday’s post, #Trump also raised objections to #ABC serving as #moderator, even though he previously accepted the network’s role. Trump referenced a lawsuit against ABC accusing host George Stephanopoulos of defaming him by misstating a jury verdict in a #NewYork trial that found the fmr president #liable for #SexualAbuse. A federal judge in #Florida said in July that the case could proceed.

[except for the #fact that a #jury did find him liable for sexual abuse]

Reiterating, as a #fediverse #moderator, because lately I've been coming across it...

Is absolutely unacceptable to advocate for the death of a particular ethnic group or citizens of a nation.

It is absolutely unacceptable to advocate for the death of all #Jews.

It is absolutely unacceptable to advocate for the death of all #Israelis.

It is absolutely unacceptable to advocate for the death of all #Palestinians.

On top of that, it is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE to claim that Hitler DIDN'T murder tens of millions of innocent people in the Holocaust over this kind of bullshit.

Y'all can talk all day about what the root of the problem is, and what should be done, but the moment you start saying it's because members of ethnic groups are inherently bad you have crossed a line from potentially useful discussion into unhelpful hate-speech.

The Jews do not have a "sociopath gene".

The Palestinians are not a hive mind.

Stop with the #racism / #eugenics. It's never legitimate discourse.
