(#5q5kh5q) @prologic@twtxt.net just F*diverse bureaucracy for the last six hours, yourself?

(#5q5kh5q) @prologic@twtxt.net it often revolves around bigger instances mass-blocking other instances (and misusing blocklists, which are usually huge – over 20 thousand hosts and counting), so much to the point that somebody went and wrote a chain-of-trust system for fuck knows what purpose, and that in particular has been bothering me for two days straight.

(#5q5kh5q) @prologic@twtxt.net it also doesn’t help that the blockers are either borderline insane or so deep down into political correctness, which is a deeper level of suck

(#5q5kh5q) TL;DR

• The tech sucks
  
• The moderation tools suck
  
• The moderators suck

(#5q5kh5q) @prologic@twtxt.net I know, right.

If the Tao is great, then the software is great.
If the software is great, the moderation toolkit is great.
If the moderation toolkit is great, the moderators are great.
The people are pleased, and there is harmony in the world.

The path the fediverse took was bad because the software sucks,
the moderation toolkit sucks, the moderators suck (for a lot of reasons, including political correctness or people borderline insane and unsuitable for admining or moderating any instances at all), and there's no harmony among users.
