I love how Eugen is actively killing Fedi by not addressing the moderation issues while also controlling how 73% of users interact with it...😒

Fix your software or recommend other software that does better.

We shouldn't be actively promoting the worst software for moderation.

Use Akkoma or something better.

@[email protected] Such as? I don’t think “verbally” attacking a developer will do any help, TBH.

@[email protected] he blocked me LONG ago.

Such as automated reporting based on keywords. like if i want to be alerted everytime someone uses a slur, i should be able to do that.

@[email protected] I don’t think Mastodon against it per se? But I don’t think they have that many people, and there are a lot of things to work on.

And what is and isn’t a slur is often context‐dependent, which is not helping…

@[email protected] if anyone says the n word, full on with the hard R, it's gonna be bad most of the time, thats why i said report instead of ban though. however, just read the replies of Eugen's most recent post

https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/113063493237838349

There's many complaints regarding this exact issue.

@[email protected] The only comment of his there I see is:

> Harassment is a complex multi-faceted issue that we're addressing on multiple ends, but filtering notifications from specific sources is something that's been live for a couple months on mastodon.social and in the nightlies.

Which state they are working on stuff to address it. How is that killing Fediverse or whatever? If the complain is that something specific is not available exactly this moment, well, that’s open‐source 🤷 People like to complain that Eugen doesn’t immediately do what they demand a bit too much.

@[email protected] this has been an issue for over a year now....it's why i'm blocked by him. I've been specifically complaining about it for over a year, but yeah. I'm pretty done talking about it for now. I'm just wasting my time.🤷‍♂️

@[email protected] Time is always an issue when one have lots of things to do, IMO. Call me an optimist, but they’ll get there, eventually :blobcatcoffee:
