oh, and doesn't that seem to be going swimmingly for the site owners
I don't understand what you're trying to say
I think it’s a pointer to the challenges of moderation on ActivityPub platforms; where all the work is for admins to do, and *can’t* (currently) be shared with “users” (like it can on Bluesky with Lists being used as mute lists or blocklists, and community run labellers). They’re different methods with their own strengths and weaknesses, but I’m a fan of the “large, professional moderation + community run tooling” of Bluesky over “in-instance possibly paid moderation work + instance defederation” ActivityPub has, as it stands at the moment. It seems like *a lot* of work for large Fediverse instance admins right now (it’s why I pay my admin team!) I’m glad your instance has been less work though!
I don't have my own instance. I get the best of both worlds lol
ive been doing fine for about a year and three months ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
