@snarfed.org@activitypubblueskybridge@fedidevs@fediversenews honestly, we probably need another project like #fedipact to track things like this. I don't want to keep an eye out for every scraper/indexer/bridge project, I just want to pick an instance where my admins defed and opt everyone out. As a bonus, this would place pressure on projects to be opt-in only, so they don't get blocked on sight by whole communities.
You do not have the resources to moderate everything that will flow over this bridge, so you shouldn't do it. Your project will force this work on other instance mods.
Opt-out is unethical because people aren't aware they're being opted-in, but also because it makes this bigger and dumps more work on other instances.
No one should federate with threads for a very simple reason: they are a known entity with a horrible track record for moderation. If Facebook had always been part of fedi, they would already be widely blocked for failure to moderate bigotry and harassment, and failure to live up to the mastodon covenant or any similar fedi standards.
Federating with threads doesn't just mean more content for everyone, it means having moderation work offloaded onto fedi.
AITA for not recognizing a famous patient and making him cry?
Backstory: I run a small private practice, and as you can imagine, I am incredibly busy. I barely have time to grab fast food on my way home some nights, let alone go to the circus.
@molly0xfff Somebody on here pointed out that "MFA means it requires one thing that you can lose, and one thing that you can forget" and I keep thinking about that.
Hello, I am a very real journalist from The Washington Post, and am confused by what I am seeing. Many users have noticed Mastodon fails to exactly recreate the twitter experience, and the userbase is different.
Would any of you like to contribute a "toot" for my story? Looking for comments that: - don't confuse me - don't confuse my audience - don't question my framing of anything - are not an image of a pig with feces on his testicles, I've already seen this several times
