MODERATORS
They still have the AI shit that looks at your posts to try and determine if you are an adult.
Fuck that.
Like everything else everyone has ever posted outside the fediverse?
There's shitloads of AIs reading the fediverse, too. Absolutely doing the same infomining as the discord age bot - but it's not the moderators doing it, at least.
nods I suspected as much.
Never seen any search results through :)
They had it way before they announced, apparently. Because I ate a ban for apparently saying I'm 9 somewhere (I don't actually remember posting that, I suspect a certain someone got to my account to get me banned).
