Hmm...this may turn into "Ban speech from my account that's promoting right/left wing agenda" moderation bots

- potta_coffee 4y agoI'm not going to lie, "bot wars" sounds a lot more fun than current Twitter. I want to play.

On the other hand, providing users with tools to curate their timelines is much better than having the company shove some arbitrary rulings down everyone's throats. Edit: In a sense this would be one of the things I have come to really enjoy about running a Misskey instance. The content is all out there on other Mastadon, Pleroma and Misskey instances in the fediverse, both stuff I would enjoy and stuff I would find extremely offensive but that doesn't really matter because what I can see is entirely in my control.
