The Fediverse makes me anxious sometimes. It's not always pure joy and bliss, especially as an admin.
Top 5 things that make me anxious here:
1. When people can't just agree to disagree, but have to crucify others or report them because they didn't like what they said - or even start a hateful campaign for it
2. When people endlessly nitpick and dissect otherwise good post
3. When the obscure and dark instances or nostr users find your posts and start posting hateful content because of "free speech"
4. When you get judged if you use the wrong word or even hint towards something that someone doesn't agree on
5. When you make a decision in moderation and any decision pisses off someone - lose-lose situation
It's not daily or often times even monthly, but it happens. I'm glad we mostly get along though.
Blocking, fediblocking, reporting and muting are the most important features here.

Every invocation of "my right to free speech" needs to be greeted with the following, every time:
"For those who demand their 'right to free speech' do remember that there is a reciprocal, inverse right which says that I have no obligation whatsoever to listen to your 'free speech' or even see any part of it"
