@atomicpoet@mastodon.social It hasn't been about abuse of QTs, mostly because the crowd are the tinkerer crowd; but the lack of mods - perhaps you need a mod broadcast account - being in the timeline to say "hey we CW that here" when folks are talking breaking news about politics, that Fox guy getting sacked, or the young black man who was murdered on the subway, is what visible, active moderation is all about.

As a trans person I had to get out out of there when the timeline devolved into Fox guy talk. And some folks there were posting last night (my time) that they were distressed that most users weren't CWing when posting their takes on the chokehold killing of a black man. If you want to rail against mastodon.social poisoning #Fediverse social culture, there's a start right there.

I'm @jo@calckey.social there, if you hadn't already realised.
