ok i'm gonna veg on my couch now

Hey friends- I set up a Librepay account and will be counting this amount towards any Patreon goals we have set, so if you're more comfortable with Librepay then feel free to use that 👍

TL;DR: Be nice to our users and if I have a relationship with you I might talk to you about problematic behavior if you're not involving our members. You're fine to do what you want.

We prefer talking to folks first to solve problems. If it's obvious bad faith and intent are involved, we'll figure it out. If not, we'll move on to next steps.

I've announced this in the past and just now in a reply but-

I built a pretty shoddy but good-enough fix that stops conversations to users involving members of domain blocked instances from showing up in the home timeline. People can still see it over in your direct page if they look.

The consequence is we don't worry about who folks on other instances want to talk with any more- whether that's users or admins. We only care if you involve us/our users.

Being a remote user, we don't have any control over your behavior when you're not involving an awoo member. If I know you and you get reported, I'll probably talk to you, but you are going to have 0 consequences from us unless it's actively, purposeful harm.

There's a laundry list of behavior in our CoC that's hard to dive into and I get how you might not want to read that. We as mods and admins are here to help you navigate that.

That's ok if you don't read it. But being around here and interacting with our members means you're going to be open to learning why those things are in place and that you aren't going to act in bad faith when we need to step in and say "hey, you're creating harm"

I guess there's *still* a sentiment of folks being scared that we're gonna get mad at you if you violate our CoC

Realistically speaking we're only going to hold you to task if you're purposefully doing something that involves creating harm for an awoo.space member, and even then negotiating the CoC without knowledge of it and accidentally violating something is why our moderation is very discussion oriented

gonna post some thoughts on federation and our CoC soon but got a dog to take outside so brb

@Jessiscah@mastodon.social we actually filter out boosted content (which always works) and your @ mentions to them (which sometimes doesn't work due to the underlying mechanism being a bit broken) so you're fine 👍

@typhlosion OOPs

@georgeqgreg@mastodon.social Turns out you can turn off uploading to the cloud, assuming you still trust the app to not do it without your consent

@georgeqgreg@mastodon.social No idea, I just picked up Swift Key a long time ago and it worked real well so I just left it haha
