Does anyone think this person isn't lying? Like, to an empathetic person who genuinely opposes racism, it should be obvious that if you're talking about something that could be harassment, and it's being done to a Black person, then it's extremely reasonable to conclude that racism is at play.
So, to volunteer to reply to a Black person who's pointing out racist harassment to tell them that, in your opinion, it's harassment that's not "specifically anti-black" would be essentially to tell that Black person that there's nothing specific about them to you. Which is racist.
This doesn't seem complicated to me. Anyway, #BlockList and #Fediblock candidate
I hate when people post political stuff on Fedi, because it makes me mentally unstable. I wish Sharkey had an option to hide posts from view and in the process mute the authors, and that tagging doomposts was mandatory. For my own mental health I deliberately live under a rock, and I hate that people are mass-sharing bad news on Fedi. It didn't used to be that way in 2022. God, what is wrong with people who don't tag political or other doomposts. It takes a fucking day to wash that shit out of my mind. Not only spoiler it, but hashtag it so I can block the entire tag. Otherwise I may potentially start mass-blocking users who post or boost such posts, and I really do not want to have to do that. I don't need to see that shit. #fediblock#nopoliticstoday#tagyourspoilers#dontdoompost#nodepression#stfuabouttwitter#keepitlight#mentalhealthmatters
@inquiline blocked at the server level and suspended his vanity domain instance. #FediBlock if you block for anti-science or conspiracy theories, the post up thread is a single user instance you might want to ban hammer.
Recently I've seen accounts from the @newmast.community domain automatically retooting my toots, based on specific hashtags.
All these accounts apparently aim to share posts from mastodon, bluesky and threads.
This is quite an invasive practice. If I'm retooted, I want it to be by "real people", and bcos my post was interesting or useful to someone.
So I've blocked their domains (they also have @newsmast.social) and accounts.
A screenshot of a toot by @socialsciences At Newsmast we’re all about connection, which is why we’re welcoming a safe, consensual extension of the social web. Soon this Feed will see contributions from experts across Bluesky and Threads! We’d love it if you joined in, just follow @bsky.brid.gy and people on Bluesky will be able to see the great things you have to say. If it’s not for you, that’s okay too! Just block the bsky.brid.gy and the threads.net domains.
What should an Admin, or if you're an Admin, what do you do, about someone's post that contains unnecessary extreme profanities attacking a well-known person?
Apparemment, ce robot se permet de suivre des comptes pour mettre un outil de surveillance du contenu en ligne à des fins lucratives.
Il ne demande évidemment pas votre consentement avant d’exploiter vos données.
#Fediblockhttps://mstdn.social/@Smith007 bot or sock puppet account. All its posts that aren't pro-Israel are bland nonsense accompanied by an unrelated image with nonsense alt text.
One look at that bio is all I need to know you haven't worked on a game that consumers actually thought was good. You aren't entitled to a salary for churning out trash nobody wants to play year after year after year, especially now that Larry Fink ain't footing the bill for it. Maybe you should learn to weld. Or hell, just fuck off onto welfare benefits so the cost we bear from your continued existence is at least only financial.
"You mean my self-insert Mary Sue game with shitty graphics and horrible gameplay that I only marketed through signal boosting on my Black Trans LGBTQ2SPIA+ Mastodon Network™️ instance at the tail end of my #fediblock posts isn't selling well? Fucking patriarchy I'm telling you, brb gotta go get ready for my date with the bear" :acat_flabbergasted:
Well, I got my first white supremacist reply from the fediverse after posting an article about Elon from Flipboard.
I reported and blocked the account. I also looked at the instance admin's account and it's clear he's also a white supremacist. So that instance will be blocked on flipboard.com and flipboard.social as well as shared with other instance admins as a problematic instance for them to take action if they also deem appropriate. Took all of 2 minutes to help make the fediverse a bit better for everyone.
And the best thing is that anyone in the fediverse can do this too. Decentralized moderation FTW.
@mike If you don’t mind, sharing the domain with the #fediblock hashtag will make other admins aware of it too, if they aren’t already, so they can block it also.
