@adamdavidson @froomkin As far as I can see, the entire article boils down to "sometimes, content moderation is difficult".
And at the core of the whole debate is a couple of posts that would be considered mild by Twitter standards. I guess people are just starving for drama.
In the end, the challenge of an instance like this might be to establish a culture rather than to moderate content. Hopefully that will get easier once people get used to the fact that they're not on Twitter any more.
