Proud to introduce my new activitypub project: https://bird.makeup . Do you wish to follow on mastodon some people that are still on the bird site? Now you can! You can even follow the muskrat if you want @elonmusk (but why would you?)
@elonmusk It is a fork of the very excellant @BirdsiteLIVE but using a non-rated limited undocumented twitter api, and with some tweaks to make in more natively integrated into activitypub. The plan is to make it the most scalable twitter bridge on the fediverse!

I work in professional fact-checking and content moderation for my day job at https://meedan.com and I have begun conversations about ways to do content moderation as a federated service that admins can pay to subscribe to (where moderators are paid a living wage, maybe in worker owned coops even, as opposed to big social media companies using basically sweatshop moderation labor)
@chad I have lots of Azure credits, I can run and administer a sidekiq worker VM for you if you want. Happy to discuss it further
