The moderation team is bigger than ever and so is the amount of reports we have to process. We're dealing with unprecedented growth despite having closed registrations on these servers weeks ago. Some false positives are unavoidable, but we understand these mistakes are upsetting and unacceptable, and we are trying to do better. Luckily all moderator actions can be appealed and reversed.

@Gargron will further registrations on this server be closed forever, or is there a known time frame?

@Gargron Glad to see you address the issue and even apologize. That's a welcome difference compared to what I am used to from the bird site.

@Gargron Thanks for the clarification. This are really good news. May I suggest a blog article about the state of the moderation of the two instances? I think this would help to clear many things up that are currently in the debate.

@Gargron I've seen someone say that if their account is suspended they're not able to migrate to another instance. Is that true?

@Gargron Thank you for all the work you’re doing! Must be hard, suddenly being in this situation under the spotlight, with all the attention and expectations. Hope you also get some rest! 🫰

@Gargron We need to make sure these false positives stop happening with such troubling frequency to underrepresented folks.

@Gargron Thanks for the update - I can see an opportunity for some (hopefully foundation-sponsored) training for all instance admins/mods down the road - the Commons needs standards, and standards take time, effort and money to implement. Good luck with your work.

@Gargron as opposed to twitter where you could easily get suspended and ignored for weeks, sending appeals into the void without knowing if any real person would ever read it

@Gargron nice to see some resistance to weaponising reports to block stuff someone merely disagrees with
