@Gargron But I think that's part of why it's important to implement it. There are plenty of people, including myself, talking about putting in some sort of patch that server owners can install to allow this sort of quote-and-reply boosting, and even a couple of implementations that have been done. One of the problems is that people who for whatever reason don't want that happening can't opt out, and another one is that there isn't a standardized method for it. I think having the central repo add it would do a lot in terms of setting a standard, even if people continue to make alternate versions: at the very least, I think we'd respect that opt-out feature.

@Gargron That's real cool to hear! One of the things that I disliked about Mastodon when I first encountered it about 5 years ago was the lack of an ability to boost someone's post while writing it on your timeline, or to put your own reply on your own timeline with their post for context when you wanted people to see it. I think any sort of functionality that allows that sort of interplay, even if it's just the ability to link replies to your own timeline and have it show the post you're replying to for context, would really facilitate that sort of content.

Was talking to someone about #BlueSky the other day, and how they apparently used some sort of #AI for #moderation. It occurs to me that someone could eventually build some sort of tool for moderation on #Mastodon and the greater #Fediverse, which could use similar AI to flag posts it thought were inappropriate, thus taking some load off of #moderators. It also occurs to me that this may actually become necessary, as spammers and other bad actors get access to more powerful AI, which can do large-scale attacks on our social network.
I don't think I am going to try this anytime soon, but it occurs to me that someone could relatively easily put together an open source AI system for flagging posts.
If we could set aside the concerns about power consumption / environmentalism that come with large-scale fast #LLM systems, how would people on #Fedi feel about AI being used as a tool for moderation?
Please respond to and #boost this #poll, and post any thoughts about it in the comments!

@Mastodon
Excited to see stuff like this coming down the pipeline. Will hopefully encourage more article writers to make Fedi accounts, just so they have something to think.
