π³β¦sorry I missed that the year listed on that site was clearly 2025 & it wasn't obviously βarchivedβ. May I make lemonade out of my inability-to-tell-5-from-6 lemons & suggest that *maaaaybe*, depending in attendee count, perhaps #FediCon can be accommodated en-masse as a Community Track at #FOSSY? I hope you'll all just use the application form to suggest & then discussion can spark from there: https://sfconservancy.org/fossy/community-tracks/ Cc: @evan@julian @reiver @karen
Oh, I've been busy and missed this news the other day - MLH acquired DEV. I'm a fan of @jonmarkgo at MLH and Ben and team at DEV, and this could be a good combination. Naturally, I'd also encourage them to consider that the future is open and that there's a vibrant developer community in the #Fediverse... π Forem/DEV would be great with ActivityPub!https://dev.to/mlh/the-future-of-software-has-a-lot-more-builders-theyre-going-to-need-a-home-1k65
Day 2 in Brussels (for this trip). I think I have adjusted enough to the time-zone change that I will be (mostly) awake for FOSDEM 2026 β which takes place this weekend.Tomorrow (Saturday) is the first day of FOSDEM 2026. I will be attending the Social Web track.https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/track/social-web/.RE: https://mastodon.social/@reiver/115975330181816783#FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2026 #SocialWeb #SocialWebFOSDEM #SocialWebFOSDEM2026
Hi #fediverse! I'm working on Hackers' Pub, a small #ActivityPub-powered social platform for developers and tech folks.
We're currently drafting a content #moderation (#flag/#report) system and would really appreciate any feedback from those who have experience with federated moderationβwe're still learning.
Some ideas we're exploring:
Protecting reporter anonymity while giving reported users enough context to understand and improve
Graduated responses (warning β content removal β suspension) rather than jumping to bans
Using LLM to help match reports to code of conduct provisions
Supporting ActivityPub Flag activity for cross-instance reports
Our guiding principle is that moderation should be about growth, not punishment. Expulsion is the last resort.
Here's the full draft if you're curious: https://github.com/hackers-pub/hackerspub/issues/192.
If you've dealt with moderation in federated contexts, what challenges did you run into? What worked well? We'd love to hear your thoughts.
