@TechConnectify @cbehopkins @dysfun @JustinH This is a great analogy. And likely a hard problem to solve in federation. I can imagine on Twitter that the server could keep some kind of reputation score and bump up the signal / reduce the noise based on that. It seems like that’s a lot of what the nutjobs were complaining about over there before the takeover (“deplatforming”).
I’m sorry you’ve had to deal with this.

@TechConnectify@mas.to @cbehopkins@mastodon.social @dysfun@social.treehouse.systems @JustinH@twit.social After posting: yes, this is what @AGTMADCAT@infosec.exchange was saying too. Could it be reproduced here? We manage to have something like this for email (but for spam), but the most successful spam filters are from highly centralized providers or use very large databases. The “this person is a jerk and you don’t need to see their replies” seems harder. Twitter had some good things too.
