   @damon @ch0ccyra1n @mekkaokereke @atomicpoet
   Reading the descriptions of negative experiences from Mekka and others makes it clear to me that most of this stuff is invisible to those who aren’t experiencing it, since a lot of it happens in replies.

   I’ve been wondering whether we couldn’t set up some kind of “toxic reply bat signal” that goes out for allies to jump in and do some proactive norm-setting (while un-CCing the original target).

     @damon
     Now I'm wondering, what does this gatekeeping tend to look like? Would be useful to know in order to help combat it ❤️

     @ch0ccyra1n@emeraldsocial.org There’s others that could speak to it more accurately & clearly than I. Such as @mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io @atomicpoet as they’ve been here & had hundreds if not thousands of conversations with users.

     @kichae@kitchenparty.online I do hope there’s a chance for the Fediverse in general. But, I’m not super hopeful. When I see the gatekeeping and talk to so many about their negative experiences. I’m truly bothered.
