Having moderated a large online community for about a decade now, I'm finding the collective arguing about CW protocol and kindness vs. freedom interesting and familiar and tiring and valuable all in a mix.
Community self-identification is a weird process, and I think I am mostly glad that mastodon doesn't by its very structure require the answer to be monolithic and universal.
But I will tip my hand a little and say that erring on the side of kindness is pretty much always defensible.
@joshmillard Problem is that due to federation I think it'd be possible to establish a community of trolls who can still be jackasses to everyone else.
@sotonohito Yeah, I think there's gonna be a lot of energy and effort spent on trying to sort out ways to make this stuff actually stick within and between subcommunities. Will be an interesting mess. But it's heartening to see these conversations happening earlier on compared to the older web having to kinda stumble onto them years on when circumstances change.
