For a moment, imagining if had released literally ANY new & useful admin/moderation tools whatsoever in the past several years....

@downey Mastodon as developed is extremely reactive.

Remember, they didn't make sign-up's approval-only by default until recently, after spam waves from servers older than the dinosaurs! (And those servers are likely still vulnerable!)

Here's a pleasing graphic as a reminder of the horror.

@downey Yes :

- Admins are notified about new stable / unstable version / security fixes in the admin interface, for example.

@downey Aren't these tools for users though? These don't seem like admin tools but individual user tools for self Moderation.
