Show HN: A decentralized semantic web built atop Activity Pub
How would moderation work here? Like, what prevents me from being literally inundated with people trying to sell me scamcoins, or viagra, or nudes, or whatever the latest thing is.<p>You say &quot;Self-moderating: a user has enough control over what they receive to reject spam content&quot;, but it&#x27;s unclear what that means. Are you telling me I&#x27;m going to have to keep saying &quot;I don&#x27;t want to hear from ViagraSupplier1493956&quot; every time ViagraSupplier1493957 makes a new account? Won&#x27;t they just automate creating new accounts so I continuously have to reject them?<p>Or is this an opt in system? That&#x27;s not what the word &quot;reject&quot; means to me, but it&#x27;s the other &quot;simple&quot; alternative that I could imagine this describing. If so, is there literally way for a new user to onboard to this network except to convince people to start &quot;listening&quot; to them via side channels (like asking friends on other social media to follow them)? That&#x27;s basically how things like substack work... I&#x27;m not sure I see it scaling.<p>I think it was one of the reddit founders who recently made the point that content moderation is fundamentally about increasing signal to noise ratio, and frankly I can&#x27;t think of a harder problem. When you&#x27;re trying to pitch a decentralized social network to me, it&#x27;s literally the first question I have.<p>PS.
