Semi public lament about masto, some talk about boundaries and my approach
I do everything in my power to not heck it up but I'm fallible and even this process fails sometimes.
That said, if you're ever willing to give me constructive feedback, I'm willing to listen but I may ask for a different time based on spoons.
Thanks for reading and understanding my process folks
Semi public lament about masto, some talk about boundaries and my approach
When I do act, here is my approach:
- is the person acting out of intent to harm?
- is the persons harm enough to ignore intent?
- does the user have a long history of problems?
Assuming I have a good relationship with the user, I will reach out to them
If I don't, I usually speak with my summit before acting- a decently sized group of awoo.space folks who are in our discord and choose to participate
Semi public lament about masto, some talk about boundaries and my approach
Lately a lot of folks have put a lot of pressure on me to be a sort of moral compass for the fediverse
I want y'all to know, I hear you and am trying my best to help folks do the best they can
But we need to be clear about how this works for me:
- I will take you seriously even if I don't act
- I act if awoo users have become involved
- I act if the behavior causes harm or can lead to causing harm
What would be great is if, instead of blocking someone who is problematic, I could put a "warning tag" on their account. Then whenever they tooted, the toot would be visibly flagged for me as being from a warning-flagged user.
I could also choose to hide all warning-tagged toots, if I wasn't in the mood for dealing with them.
Even better: people who follow me would see the warning tags as well (popup on toot: "user has been warning-tagged by Woozle Hypertwin [and 27 others you follow]").

mh, hellsite, cw rant
i can't even fucking touch twitter b/c news with no CWs
this is legitimately a fucking issue for me. it sets off my mh issues /hard/, and i'm so fucking tired of this shit
it's avoidable.
platform-supported CWs aren't some fucking bad thing like people on twitter paint them. they keep me from having a fucking breakdown. we need to turn this shit into a cultural norm, so that [average neurotypical person] actually understands why they should be doing it
