   It's been pointed out to me that some of the confusion with what I'm posting is that we've been largely talking at cross purposes.
   
   I've been talking about proactive moderation things you could be doing, that are common across large parts of the fediverse - though now kind of given up on in some of largest instances since the birdsite culture takeover. You guys keep talking about reactive moderation and letting you know when I see things. I've not really had an issue with that.
   
   It isn't a case of you not responding to egregious rule breaking, but rather my perception that calckey.social, is replicating what I've seen is the new cultural norm on many general instances. It's the sub-par mastodon.social vibe.
   
   I'm railing against the kind of moderation style that non-black tech guys seem to favour, one that doesn't taking proactive steps to mitigate an environment that becomes passively hostile but rather waits till things are actively hostile. It's what folks have been pointing out about re Black Mastodon and why many are now supporting a Mastodon centralisation push for mod tools, third-party curated blocklists & patching up the workarounds that bigots use to target folks.
   
   Doesn't it seem kinda shit though that media spoilers require a content warning on calckey.social, but stuff that's painful for black or trans folk to be regularly bombarded with is like, "CWs? Meh, it's news"? 🤷♀️ @atomicpoet@mastodon.social And when @unattributed@calckey.social 's first interaction with me goes straight to "where do you draw the line", I realise that we won't find common ground soon.
   
   It sucks that queer and black instances are becoming increasingly siloed on the much championed "queer-built" fediverse, and our neighbours think these norms are all a bit over the top on our part.
   
   I've added some screenshots to fill out the vibe of what I'm arguing.
