   @dch82 first, "normies" have to not get harassed when they come here.

   Unfortunately the biggest Fedi software refuses to add automated reporting of offensive posts so if it's not reported, the admins won't even see it.

   People coming from corporate social media are used to ignoring the report button because in their experience, it either doesn't work, or gets ignored by admins anyway.

   We need automated reporting.

     @AterNox @dch82 blocking and reporting work fine.

     However, people from corporate social media won't report posts because in their experience, it either doesn't get taken seriously or the admins ignore it. Corporate social media sites don't exactly act on reports in a timely manner.

     I'm on my own instance, I moderate for myself. I don't want slurs to exist on my instance at all. However, if I don't see them with my own eyes, I cannot ban the user.

     @BeAware@social.beaware.live @dch82@lemmy.zip Maybe im a little lost. Isn't there a block and report button on Mastodon? I'm using Misskey and both buttons seem to work. I mean im reporting to myself, but the button seems to work. What kind of automated blocking are you trying to do here?

     @BeAware@social.beaware.live @dch82@lemmy.zip So Mastodon not have a wordlist you can populate that "removes" posts with the keywords you provide? It took me a while to find it in Misskey, works like a charm,

     @AterNox @dch82 doesn't exist for admins. It works on a "user" level. But that won't remove the post or data from the instance, it just "hides" it so the single user can't see.

     @BeAware@social.beaware.live Ahh so the fix is for you is to have a word list that you write a script that updates all your users when ever you make a change? Easy. Server side script done. No need for external admin support.

     Unfortunately not. Mastodon has no such thing. It does have filtered words for normal users. However, that doesn't do anything besides hide posts that contain the filtered words, nothing more.😬

     We have instancewide admin blocks, so the accounts that would be automatically reported can be blocked preemptively, no report needed. That can be both good and bad... but pick a sheltered instance and you shouldn't get harassed. How would automatic reporting even work? I don't recall, but doesn't the admin interface let you specify keywords that alert the admins in a post? Is that what you mean?
