🥂 Buon 2026!
🗣️ Annunciamo che il 31 gennaio, insieme a @devol, saremo tra gli speaker del @fosdem'26 a #Bruxelles: uno degli eventi più importanti per il software #opensource e in particolare per il #fediverse!
🌐 Presenteremo a livello internazionale la neonata associazione dedicata al #Fediverso: @fedimedia Italia!
🥲 Un piccolo sogno che si avvera!
🌟 Speriamo che il 2026 permetta di realizzarne altri…
💸 ...in particolare rendere più sostenibile il nostro lavoro!

@shironeko I see what you mean. I guess you can put it that way. So all the servers that respect reply controls will "ignore" the reply and not display it, making it basically invisible to the original poster and pretty much all their followers.
Outdated servers and servers set up to purposefully ignore reply controls can be blocked.
Seems like a pretty good solution.
-
@stefan ignoring is what you are describing yeah? again, replies are distributed by the replier's server, you have no control over it.
-
@mina Absolutely! The metaphor is so visceral, I think people wo don't deal with abuse daily can really understand the issue better.
My go-to response now when people appear confused why anyone would want better self-defense tools.
(But yes, as the story mainly highlights, good moderation is a must as well.)
-
@the Yeah, it's been a bit frustrating seeing Mastodon, being the far more popular platform, lag behind GTS in this.
It's unfortunate GTS hasn't gained more traction, maybe we'd be in a different position and not have so many people flee to Bluesky, or even back to Twitter/X.
Hopefully not too late to get things right.

This is an excellent text.
As I understand it, it emphasizes the current problem we're facing in the Fediverse.
-
@nini Oh absolutely, I think we need both tools for "self-defense", and better tools for moderators as well.
Have you seen the latest Mastodon roadmap by any chance?
https://joinmastodon.org/roadmap
> Moderation tools
> Looking at ways to make moderation easier, e.g. shared block lists.Sounds promising!

I would love that.
Also, Mastodon is (somewhat) behind the times on this one. GoToSocial already has similar settings, and one might even argue that they're more powerful than simply turning replies on or off from the compose box, depending on what "powerful" is supposed to mean. I actually don't really care, though; there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to have this, and the "toggle switch" at the same time; it's not like they're mutually exclusive (or should be).
I'd rather have both.
