5 things white people can do to start making the fediverse less toxic for Black people
privacy.thenexus.today
Anti-Blackness is a long-term problem in the fediverse. Now's a good time to start changing that.

Feedback welcome! Here’s the TL;DR list

  1. Listen more to more Black people
  2. Post less – and think before you post
  3. Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
  4. Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects

Other suggestions?

    I hear ya, fair points!

    Oh, one thing I have seen minority folks ask for (and be ignored+condescended at about!) is better moderation tools. It’s tough to moderate big instances, particularly when under direct attack by malicious users.

    Edit: oops, you’ve got it covered. Apologies for, in fact, being that guy!
