there's some more to do here in the repo to get it where i want, but will probably write a leaflet soon on making moderation work for people that are not Bluesky PBC. hoping that this will be a good step in that direction.

On the governance side, a common solution to get something started is using a “nonprofit fiscal sponsor.” They’re essentially your parent company that holds the liability.

I’d like to think I’m scam-aware, but if someone put Moto Guzzi parts at the end of the phishing line…it’s a vulnerable time out there in motorsports land.
