    just this week I’ve had multiple random matrix accounts start a chat with me to post an Imgur link with some Hitler bs. I assume they just chose random members of one or more fediverse related public matrix rooms to send that to. they probably just do this with random public rooms and the fediverse relation didn’t matter.






  • until 0.19.4 is released, clients are supposed to suppress comment contents when the comment is either marked as removed (moderator) or deleted (creator).

    they might decide to show contents to site admins or community moderators anyway, but some clients did not implement this properly and show the original content to all users.

    this is of course not something that should have been available to everyone in the first place, which is why this is being fixed in 0.19.4.

    depending on the client, you should still see some kind of indicator above the comment text that shows it was removed or deleted, in this case removed.







  • for our admin team, we’re using a bot to message a matrix room when content is reported and reacting to the message when it’s been handled.

    this could be done pretty much the same way on mod level, though this is certainly not easily accessible to everyone due to the hosting involved.

    and all of this is only relevant if you even receive reports about content in the first place. if you moderate a community on another instance, tough luck unfortunately, as they currently do not federate.
