Between this and the reddit blackout, "volunteer" mods doing free work for a company are really overstating their importance. The cons don't outweigh the goods.

Between this and the reddit blackout, "volunteer" mods doing free work for a company are really overstating their importance. The cons don't outweigh the goods. It's why I like the Fediverse: I control what I can see on my own instance and don't have a rando telling me what I can and cannot do.
- gs17 3y agoA rando can't deny your freedom to post, but they can deny you interaction with anyone beyond your own instance. Most instances have a pretty long blocklist (albeit sometimes for good reasons).
- tomstockmail 3y agoA single rando can deny your interaction on their instance, not on a bunch of other instances. Shared blocklists notwithstanding, but I would hope if you're following a shared blocklists you're vetting it to an extent.
