<p>Friendly reminder: last year I built FediMod FIRES, a protocol and reference server implementation for sharing moderation data.</p><p>I haven't yet been able to get anyone to adopt it or even signal intent to adopt. But regularly I see people complaining about the lack of data sharing when it comes to moderation, especially for combating spam, scams, and harassment. The tool is there, please use it!</p><p>Whilst I'm not actively working on FediMod FIRES this quarter, I did apply in November for a grant to continue that work, and last I heard a few weeks ago is that the grant made it to the next stage, so I may have some money again to fund development.</p><p>It's not 1.0.0 yet, because I decided it needed more work for me to be happy to call it that, but it is usable!</p><p>Installation is also super simple for data producers, literally two commands on debian or ubuntu boxes.</p><p>Learn more: <a href="https://fires.fedimod.org/manuals/reference-server/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="fires.fedimod.org/manuals/reference-server/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fires.fedimod.org/manuals/refe</span><span class="invisible">rence-server/</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/moderation/" rel="tag">#moderation</a> <a href="/tags/fediblock/" rel="tag">#fediblock</a> <a href="/tags/administration/" rel="tag">#administration</a></p>
