In our continuous effort to innovate and empower users, Memory is utilising a Composable Moderation system. Drawing inspiration from various models, including insights from Bluesky, we've tailored our approach to fit the unique needs and ethos of the Fediverse community. One of the reasons outside of scale we believe Big Social often fails at moderation is due to attempting to moderate a global community in a broad manner. People come from different cultures with different views and laws on societal topics, it is a mistake to treat everything and everyone the same. We want to respect individual needs as they know what they want & need better than we would.
What Sets Memory's Composable Moderation Apart?
Unlike Bluesky's model, which envisages multiple services for moderation, Memory's approach is streamlined yet powerful, focusing on user autonomy and community collaboration.
Collaborative Block and Mute Lists: At the heart of Memory's Composable Moderation are the Block and Mute lists. These aren't just personal tools; they're collaborative. You can create, share, and follow lists, making it easier to manage your online environment collectively. Think of it of similarly to making a music playlist on a streaming platform. Also, these lists can be dynamic.
Privacy and Transparency Balanced: Lists are semi-private by default. You'll see the name and creator of a list, but the details remain confidential unless you request access. This system respects privacy while fostering a transparent community spirit.
Content Labelling System: Beyond blocking illegal content at the platform level, Memory empowers you to interact with content on your terms. Our labelling system allows users to respond to various content types according to their comfort levels.
Empowering User Discretion: You're not just a passive recipient of content labels. On Memory, you have the power to self-label your posts, contributing to a more respectful and conscientious community.
