    This is an extension of the discussion from Topic removal from a category/community. In it, rimu@piefed.social shared the Lemmy federation primer which details that Delete(Object) is federated whenever a post is removed from a community. I needed a way to communicate when a topic/context (not the top-level post) is removed from a category/audience, but is not deleted. You might ask — how is removing a context different from deleting it? In this case, a removed context still exists and is still resolvable. A context can removed from an audience in NodeBB. Note that Lemmy and Piefed don't have a concept of an audience-less context, so if a context is removed from an audience, it would simply be deleted. No additional logic required. Anyhow — when a topic is moved into Uncategorized (which is a catch-all bucket for... you guessed it, uncategorized content), NodeBB will federate a Remove. It looks something like this: { id: '#activity/remove/', type: 'Remove', actor: '', to: [], cc: [, object: '', origin: '', } This is live on activitypub.space already. This goes hand-in-hand with topic moving, which would follow similar mechanisms, except it'd be a Move instead of a Remove. I will likely write an FEP with technical details for both Remove and Move, and will include existing behaviours (Delete(Object)) as well.

    Today, our "Programming Digital Societies" class at Amsterdam University College #AUC will be about the #Fediverse. Among other things students are reading and watching the work of @_elena ❤️ @SLURF At some point there will be a small Mastodon tutorial in which we will invite them to create an account on social.edu.nl To help them find each other, and help you find them, we will also invite them to comment on this post 😬 You have been warned.

    Running a community in the Fediverse means balancing openness with safety. Every year, @iftas takes the pulse of administrators, moderators, and community managers with their Annual Needs Assessment. This survey helps identify what’s working, where support is needed, and which tools can make a difference for those keeping decentralized spaces safe.The 2025 survey is now openTake part in the IFTAS Needs Assessment (5–10 minutes).Take the survey now(If you haven’t seen them before, you can also take a look at last year’s report)Last year’s responses represented moderators of over 4.3 million accounts across ActivityPub platforms. With WordPress now the largest group of federating instances, it’s especially important for our community of hosts, site admins, and moderators to be heard.Moderation in WordPress: From Site-Wide to Personal ControlsWe recently introduced a major update to the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress: personalized and site-wide moderation tools.Site administrators can now set domain, keyword, and actor-level blocks that protect the entire site.Individual users can fine-tune their own experience with personal blocks, managed directly from their profiles.Content is checked against both global and personal rules—so moderation works at every level.These improvements directly address needs raised in previous IFTAS surveys, making moderation more discoverable, flexible, and effective for WordPress communities in the Fediverse.Your Input MattersIFTAS uses the Needs Assessment to guide tools, policies, and advocacy that reflect the real-world challenges of moderators—especially those in under-resourced communities. The more representative the responses, the stronger the outcomes for everyone.If you’re running a federating WordPress site, please consider:Filling out the survey yourself.Sharing it with other admins, moderators, and community organizers.Reminding folks that it’s anonymous, quick, and impactful.Take the 2025 Fediverse Needs AssessmentTogether, we can keep building a safer, healthier Fediverse—one that reflects the needs of its communities.
