Compare and contrast: Fediseer, FIRES, and The Bad Space
https://privacy.thenexus.today/fediseer-fires-and-the-bad-space/
The Bad Space is only one of the projects exploring different ways of moving beyond the fediverse's current reliance on instance-level blocking and blocklists. It's especially interesting to compare and contrast The Bad Space with two somewhat-similar projects:
- Fediseer is another instance catalog, including endorsements as well as negative judgments about instances.
- FIRES (an acronym for Fediverse Intelligence Recommendations & Replication Endpoint Server) is infrastructure for moderation advisories and recommendations.
Many thanks to @thisismissem and @Db0 for feedback on earlier versions of this post!
