When I followed the link in Firefox with the MetaMask extension installed and enabled, I was greeted with MetaMask's Ethereum Phishing Detection page: https://i.imgur.com/DSiut95.jpg
This is great! Any option to filter spam/hate speech automatically and not on the front-end?
That being said, I would imagine it would be done the same way as an automod type bot for any Matrix room. You'd probably have to implement it yourself though.
Edit: That being said, I don't like the idea of automatic moderation. For small scale blogs, maybe just a manual approval of comments would be worthwhile.

This seems like an even better use of a state-synchronization protocol like Matrix than instant messaging, for which I think XMPP is a better fit.

I personally find "hate speech" nomenclature quite tedious, but dealing with undesired content is handled via the usual Matrix methods[1]... since that is what underlies Cactus. You may have to self host though, i'm not sure if Cactus themselves give access to these features if you rely on them for hosting. [1] https://matrix.org/docs/guides/moderation

XMPP has been effectively dead for awhile. Time to move on.
I do concede that XMPP is not the new shiny, but it is very far from dead.
It powers more things than you realise, a few are listed at https://xmpp.org/uses/
There is healthy growth in server count: https://blog.prosody.im/2020-retrospective/
Development is very active, across a diverse range of projects: https://xmpp.org/category/newsletter.html

I first encountered 'hate speech' as a wide eyed teenager in the 1990s on a gaming IRC room that I hung out in. Somehow my ethnic background came out, and it was bizarre: the entire room either turned against me with racist hate speech, adding that they knew where I lived based on my ip (didn't think this was possible, but then didn't know anyone to ask if it was) and would come beat me up or worse. Or they just went silent and wouldn't stand up for me. I asked the moderators to help and I don't think they ever replied; certainly they never did anything. It was terrifying, and it made me clock out of IRC and online gaming communities for good.
So I wonder, to those who downvote someone asking about moderating (posts on your own blog!) or just consider hate speech as a term to be 'tedius' : have you ever experienced it yourself?
