Spent the last week mostly on the backend of RSC to be able to better moderate, govern an instance.
Admins can now moderate own instance and also moderate how remote users from other RSC instances are ingested/displayed on/with the instances an admin federate with.
Later on we'll need roles so that an instance can have users with moderation capabilities, allowing an admin to share governance with members
The moment we federated even just with demo RSC instance, the lack of observability, control and moderation quickly became problematic
The whole point was to give admins a full view of all the feeds added by users with the capabilities to moderate if necessary.
I think the current backend controls + API admin capabilities will be enough to build on top without much friction
There is also a simplification of the backend code ongoing, we'll constantly face this kind of targeted refactoring because the project is very new and still finding its way.
Anyway, more news soon :)
