  When you moderate a platform that the public is free to upload anything to, you will see everything. From insults to threats to gore to CSAM. Thats how the internet is. That is the worst part in my opinion, because you cant just look away, but actually have to deal with it.

    I agree with you. However, I don’t think most people understand that. For most folks they haven’t been exposed to the most mentally darkest souls among us.

      This really is a complicated problem, but if the fediverse wants to grow without relying on slave labor for moderation like Meta and the rest, then we have to find ways to lighten the load on moderators. Thats why creating transparent pre moderation tools like the image scanners used by many fediverse instances is so important.

        Are there any moderation tool projects going on right now one could throw a few bucks at to support it?

      thats why the bigger platforms resorted to using ai moderation to deal with these.

    I managed a forum for a decade, and seen everything except CSAM. You just delete it.

    It was on a .tk domain and it got suspended for content violations anyway
