Hi #fediverse! I'm working on Hackers' Pub, a small #ActivityPub-powered social platform for developers and tech folks.
We're currently drafting a content #moderation (#flag/#report) system and would really appreciate any feedback from those who have experience with federated moderation—we're still learning.
Some ideas we're exploring:
Jeff SikesFlag activity for cross-instance reportsOur guiding principle is that moderation should be about growth, not punishment. Expulsion is the last resort.
Here's the full draft if you're curious: https://github.com/hackers-pub/hackerspub/issues/192.
If you've dealt with moderation in federated contexts, what challenges did you run into? What worked well? We'd love to hear your thoughts.

Oh you hate socialism?
The US spends about $106b/yr out of its $10.3t/yr budget on food stamps. That's about 1% of the yearly budget.
Let's put that in perspective. If you make $50,000/yr salary, about $80 of your taxes goes toward food stamps, and about $4,000 of it goes toward corporate subsidies (defense contracts, billionaire tax breaks, farms, distributors, oil and gas, etc).
If you're mad about the 80 bucks instead of the $4,000 dollars, you don't hate socialism, you hate poor people.

Someone who understands the nuts and bolts of how #Mastodon and #ActivityPub work better than I do, please explain this to me…
@galacticstone🌜Galactic Stone🌛 posted a reply to my blog's ActivityPub feed: https://mastodon.social/@galacticstone/115827838709434007
I want to reply to their reply. Pasting the URL of the reply into the search box is supposed to cause my server to pull the post over so that I can reply to it.
Instead, it reports "No results."
I can search like this for other posts from mastodon.social just not this one.
Why?

A German hacker known as "Martha Root" dressed as a pink Power Ranger and deleted a white supremacist dating website live onstage
This happened during the recent CCC conference.
Martha had infiltrated the site, ran her own AI chatbot to extract as much information from users as possible, and downloaded every profile. She also uncovered the owner of the site. She has published all of the data.

Street Art Utopia shared the below article:
STREET ART UTOPIA @streetartutopia@streetartutopia.com
Public statues are usually meant to be serious tributes to history, but these photos prove they are also the world’s best props for a quick laugh. From perfectly timed interactions to clever additions that change the entire meaning of a sculpture, these images capture the moment when ordinary people (and a few animals) decided to play along with the art. We’ve rounded up 9 of the funniest and most creative ways people have turned "do not touch" monuments into interactive comedy. More: […]

Well actually, I could have written this comment over the weekend.

Do you capitalise or not capitalise the “x” in manga/anime names eg Hunter x Hunter, Spy X Family? 
I personally leave it as lowercase as a holdover from ship names (eg Bella x Jacob), and in my eyes I see the same as articles in titles (eg “the”, “if”, etc)
