Somebody reported me to myself, y’all. How’s your day going? :)
Hint: if you don’t like my comparing Israel to Russia, go tell Israel to stop acting like Russia.
(And find out how the fediverse works before you go making an arse of yourself trying to censor me on my own personal instance.)

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •wait wait, so reports are cross-server? If I report something from another instance, it goes to the admin of the other instance, not of my own?
I guess that makes sense; just hadn't thought of it before!

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •Are you the only moderator in that instance? in such a case minimum should be to leave the decision to someone else. If you decide for yourself about the moderation of yourself then I believe its pretty much an autocratic situation.

in reply to natacha 🍉 • • •Wanna come moderate my blog too? :)
My instance is my own personal space. “You moderating yourself” is called personhood.
No one is forced to listen to me. If someone doesn’t like what I’m saying they can block my account or the instance.

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •PS. I’m the only person on my instance. It’s an instance of one.

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •Interesting iits a good way not to get challenged.
I would never have though about doing that ....
Aral Balkan
in reply to natacha 🍉 • • •It’s not about not getting challenged. You can get challenged all you like (as anyone you haven’t blocked can reply and challenge you). And, as I said, no one is forced to listen to you either as anyone can block your account or the whole instance.
But what it does is correctly model personhood, which the “servers of many” model doesn’t.
It’s the small tech/web philosophy. Communities are made up of individuals. That’s what we model.

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •It also alleviates a lot the personality visibility.
I usually only block real problems fascists and such and people attacking, I do not block people because of what they say but because they start being a nuisance, This is a personal choice.
