MODERATORS
I really like the decentralised moderation model proposed by the Element folks (and the Electronic Frontier Foundation has promoted something similar): https://element.io/blog/moderation-needs-a-radical-change/
I'm probably going to still use DuckDuckGo for now but this is such a stupid unnecessary move. Seeing some russian "disinformation" wasn't going to suddenly turn me into a Putin stan.
