The fediverse has no central authority — which brings both challenges and opportunities for how it's governed. For Dot Social, @mike spoke with @kissane and @darius, two of the smartest people working on this, about the impact of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election on fediverse work, the "Xodus," what needs to be done next, and how to fund and sustain better networks for humans.

I really wish more people acknowledged that content moderation—whether here in the #fedi or on a corporate social network like #Bluesky—is service work that requires individuals to be exposed to terrible, terrible things. The people performing content moderation are providing care work for society and deserve to be compensated accordingly, but rarely are.
If your experience online is mostly free from racism, abuse, and other forms of violent or extreme content, there's a good chance that it's because someone, somewhere, filtered it out for you.

Threads have taken us a bit by surprise this morning!
We've woken up to find that Fediverse accounts can now be followed from Threads (we haven't tried it yet, but that means they can bridge to Bluesky too).
This is HUGE!
To get involved, ensure your server isn't blocking the Threads or Bluesky domains.
To bridge with Bluesky, follow @bsky.brid.gy

Para periodistas que publican sobre #Bluesky: NO es una red descentralizada. No se puede usar sin control de la empresa Bluesky. Informaos, preguntad; por favor, no difundáis desinformación. 🙏

"I would like to use #Bluesky. They’ve done a bunch of seriously interesting technical work on moderation and ranking that I truly admire, and I’ve got lots of friends there who really enjoy it.
But I’m not on Bluesky and I don’t have any plans to join it anytime soon. I wrote about this in 2023: I will never again devote my energies to building up an audience on a platform whose management can sever my relationship to that audience at will."
