For context, I am the top donor at my instance, I recognize that there is a need for funds. BUT, I believe it’s important for the fediverse to be accessible to everyone regardless if they have the funds for that.

Dopamine received, initiating hyperfocus protocol!
As a rule of thumb, we’ve observed that a team of 5 trained moderators appears to provide ample coverage and redundancy for servers of about 1,000 active users
That’s a fascinating bit of information. I would expect 5 moderators to provide coverage for more users. I am wondering how they came up with that statistic (will update the comment if I find an answer).
Remember that offliine/IRL community management experience can be just as important as online experience
Interesting idea, wondering what’s the IRL presence of the fediverse…
If you’re building toward participatory or democratic governance, consider establishing a proposal and voting system (some teams we spoke with use Loomio, but multiple options exist) for major policy decisions.
That’s soooo important, I love when communities create polls to decide on policy changes.
Avoid promoting brand-new members unless you already have a pre-existing relationship with them
I have followed some discussion on multi-level hierarchies on the fediverse, wondering if there are any instance implementing that…
Consider charging for accounts or offering paid memberships.
Hell no!
We hope there will be more resources available in the future, particularly tooling around legal compliance. This is one of the big infrastructural gaps we point out in our main report
That’s a big issue, I would be interested in hosting an instance available to other people, but I don’t want to end up in jail and I lack the resources to make sure that won’t happen…
That was an interesting read, it seems there is an in-depth analysis of the report here.
Can someone ELI5 so I can get enough dopamine to go read the whole thing?
Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not but I found this review.

I had done some research about a year ago, but I don’t have the papers saved.
If you are worried about duplicates, aka a single bot spamming multiple votes, then that’s feasible to mitigate.
If you are worried about multiple bots spamming one vote each, that’s harder to mitigate and it comes down to how the instances handles bot accounts in general. IMO it’s best to ignore the bot problem and instead focus on designing a vote weighting system that favors similar instances.
For anyone interested, there are a few papers on cryptographically secure voting, where both voter anonymity and election integrity are preserved.
Most designs consider three separate entities, where if you accumulate the information between those entities you would be able to identify a voter and his vote, but each entity on itself does not hold enough information.
Pretty interesting study!! They found that introverts that used texting to express themselves demonstrated higher levels of self-confidence than those that used texting to escape. However, for extroverts it was the opposite, those that used texting to escape demonstrated higher levels of self-confidence.
As an AuDHD person, aka someone that has made a skipping rope out of the extrovert/introvert line, I have observed that on good days my extroverted side is on outreach mode while my introverted side is on deep connection mode.
Follow people from other instances, if you find them interesting, chances are they will find you interesting and follow back.
Use tags, especially popular ones.
Here in Greece the supreme court is determining goverment actions as unconstitutional, recommending changes, and nothing is being done. It is essentially powerless.
They made meow meow beans?
Grew up in a home without an internet connection. A friend helped me crack our neighbour’s WiFi password, at the time it was surprisingly easy if you had a copy of Kali Linux.
Edit: This post got me wondering how I could open up a free WiFi network without being liable for any potential illegal activity someone may do? I got a fairly good access point and the bandwidth to spare, but I am afraid to share it in case the police comes knocking on my door…
I fear if I get fired I won’t be able to sustain myself.
Batteries have an environmental impact too. I am no expert, but I can see why researchers are trying to find alternatives.
Assuming you have read the book is the issue. Is it going to he Marx? Or maybe Judith Butler? What about other thinkers that write about race? What about anarchism, is Kropotkin out of scope? Should the quiz also cover market economies? What about Thomas Sowell?
My point is while I have barely scratched the surface, I have already mentioned a wide variety of authors which most people haven’t read (some of them for good reasons).
IMO such a quiz would be impossible for anyone but professionals. I have been following local and international news, but the amount of things happening on a daily basis is simply too much.
Also, constructing such a quiz would be impossible, picking questions would introduce political bias.
For example, Berney followers are likely to miss Trump quotes, even though arguably they are among the most politically educated groups in America.
To answer yoyr question, I believe I would score within the top 10% for most quizzes. But, there are a lot of quizzes I wouldn’t get a single question right.
Don’t come to Greece, over tourism is a huge problem here…
It’s so ironically beautiful that accessing the report costs $1.3K…
O mighty pirates of the high seas, I need your help!!!
IMO it’s not about what metric is used, but how it is used. The current approach, completely avoiding any karma like mechanism, solves the farming issue, but IMO does not cater to the needs of every user.
For example, I have ADHD and if accumulating karma gives me much needed motivation and feel good chemicals, I am going to take them.
At the same time, holding a user to a higher regard because of their karma is stupid, it’s better to build real connections with usernames you recognise through continuous communication.
Personally, karma was an easily digestable piece of information about how my outreach into the social media is performing. Accumulating karma helps me feel connected with the community, feel accepted.
