pleroma racism
my first thought with pleroma MRF is the "i filter the posts where my mutuals use the n-word so i'm not racist actually" users
I did 5 seconds of research on the person requesting MRF functionality in GoToSocial and I wasn't wrong
why are they always Like This
re: pleroma racism
ah yes
>MRF polices are much more flexible in what you can do with filters. For example, you could count the occurances of a word, or modify the word to be censored le ts. It opens the door to more specialsed moderation strategies and also enables cool stuff.
i was so fucking right
re: not playing devil's advocate
@dysphoricunicorn yeah, that's the only reasonable use so far. so IMO if GTS gets anything like it, it'd just be for content warnings / media spoilers. Editing content seems super icky
not playing devil's advocate
@f0x I don't like the possibility of rewriting posts but automatically adding CNs to posts from certain instances seems pretty cool.
I wouldn't want to tell other instances what CN rules they should have but if I know a certain instance is made for a some potentially triggering thing, I could make use of this feature.
