FediMod FIRES
Tooling for Fediverse moderation
FediMod is building a set of tools to help assist in the moderation of fediverse servers, thereby reducing the need for each fediverse software to reimplement moderation tooling from scratch.
FediMod FIRES (Fediverse Intelligence, Recommendations & Replication Endpoint Server) is a protocol for sharing moderation recommendations and advisories. It introduces two key ideas to the Fediverse, one being a firewall based approach to federation management, the second being that moderation decisions should be labelled using common vocabularies.
The current project aims to create a reference server implementation, along with a conformance test suite that can be run by anyone implementing the FIRES protocol. We also intend to contribute features to existing fediverse software to enable the usage of these tools.
