@pluralistic Have you seen "Moderating the Fediverse: Content Moderation on Distributed Social Media" by Alan Z. Rozenshtein? It is 19 pages but is thick with law-journal-style footnotes, so not too long of a read. https://ssrn.com/abstract=4213674

It leans a lot into distributed social networks and even mentions a kind of "interoperable Facebook".

Followgraph looks up all the people you follow on Mastodon, and then the people they follow. Then it sorts them by the number of mutuals, or otherwise by how popular those accounts are.
It then shows the list with Mastodon links to follow them.

I've been collecting reports from Mastodon instance operators as they cope with the #TwitterMigration: https://dltj.org/article/mastodon-instance-reports

Starting with reports from @chad (Mastodon Canada), @nova (Hachyderm), and @aurynn (Cloud Island, New Zealand).

Learning lots. If you know of other reports, please @-tag me and I'll add them to the list.

@chad @nova @aurynn

Indeed we are all in this together! Thanks again for sharing your experience, and I wanted to let you know that I've updated the blog post with new entries from across the fediverse: https://dltj.org/article/mastodon-instance-reports/
