Finally I'm getting around to listen to @mike 's Dot.Social episode with @rklambo and @pcottle from , talking about .

Mike asks the most important question first: "why are you [Meta] doing this [Fediverse integration]?"

Mike commends Rachel and Peter and other Meta people reaching out to the community and listening to concerns and feedback, such as at :

I would agree with that. It's unusual for a large company to do this kind of thing, but absolutely the right and necessary thing to do when engaging with the Fediverse.

Today is the first day I thought that the model might be a better way to build a decentralized social network. Because seemingly smart and honest people told me those protocols make using one profile for lots of different services much simpler and automatic than . I still have serious questions re how they seem more likely to remain more centralized via relays and unlikely to do moderation well enough, but we haven't really solved those here yet either.

One of the sessions yesterday at the focused on CSAM, quite a tough topic.

If you host your own instance, even if it's just YOU on that instance, you need to read this and consider taking action to protect yourself and your moderation team.

Kudos to @thisismissem and @iftas for exploring new ways to manage this without scarring moderators for life.

Takeaways from today's thoughts, although my brain is filled with all kinds of tangents right now:

  1. Onboarding new devs sucks. There's way too many assumptions of what developers are supposed to know before they write a single line of code. There's cultural hostility towards things people barely take the time to learn about or understand. There's not really much of a welcoming committee for new devs. Sash's experience definitely came up here.

What is and isn't acceptable for businesses to do in the ?

Lots of opinions, many strongly held. The fact of the matter, of course, is that businesses are connecting to the Fediverse, from news organizations to Meta and everything in between.

Would be useful to come up with a set of acceptable things to do for businesses and unacceptable ones. Or maybe a scale.

I want to run a session on this next week, and brainstorm with you all.
