  • I administer my own instance of Lemmy and Mastodon. The CSAM issue was something I learned about real quick, unfortunately. I was able to implement community maintained blocklists. It’s not perfect, by any means, but I’ve not seen any more harmful content.

    The idea of a centralized judicial system does not seem compatible with the spirit of federation. The safety we expect from centralized platforms is something we gave up for our freedom. With that, we do have to be diligent and deal with the bad actors. It’s the worst trade off in the whole deal.

    It’s also impossible to enforce, I think. The Rage Against the Machine “f you, I won’t do what you tell me” spirit lives in all small server admins (by virtue of rebelling in the first place).
