How can a mastodon user tell if their account is "hidden" or "limited" ?

Who are you suggesting should regulate it? Elon Musk? Mark Zuckerberg? Donald Trump?
Every time there has been a centralised authority running a social network, it has ended up in the hands of billionaires that support hatred.
The idea of this place is to give the grassroots control of their social networks. If you would prefer social networks to be corporate, there are already plenty of corporate options.

I'm not communicating with that server. I communicated with people I followed and who followed me.
Your privileged rationalisation of victimhood will age badly.
What I'm hearing is that there is zero mechanism for holding admins/owners to account. How convenient.
I'm not completely clear how an account being limited is victimhood?
What are you suggesting social networks should do instead, not limit accounts at all?

I should have looked at this profile before interacting with an antisemite. Bye.

The lack of diversity on here is a serious problem but it's not going to be solved by allowing everyone to post whatever they want without ever limiting or blocking anyone.
There needs to be MORE moderation on here, not less. People need to be protected from hatred, not exposed to it.
We need more tools like reply controls and automatic alerts for moderators when bad keywords are used.
No one should be seeing hatred in their feeds due to lax moderation.

I follow a lot of people critical of the Fediverse on my personal account to keep tabs on how bad the problem is and what exactly is going wrong.
The main issue raised is too many purveyors of hatred being allowed to attack members of minorities. Allowing hate puts people off staying here, accounts posting hate need to be banned.
If you removed all limits on what accounts could say and do, it would make the situation much worse.

you show a lack of imagination
many people have suggested ideas such as
* mandatory transparency to ensure rogue admins are held to account
* public statstistics on admin behaviour incl GDPR complaince
* users having a right to a second binding opinion
* voting in supervisory groups / committees to balance rogue admins
* ... etc etc
but the aristocracy always ignore such ideas
the fediverse conferences as a result are very much self-congratulatory

you've shown a poor level of maturity (like some mastodon admins) and I can't make you understand
but this conversation will perhaps highlight to others what the issue is

im a minority
im telling you that the problem is not "hate" but censorship by biased European admins

@charlesdelavalleepoussin @FediTips @footils how do you get the idea mastodon is "un-diverse"? any example of some sort of social network that is more diverse?
