I've received my first "report" on hugs.lgbt and I'm very confused ....

Two posts were reported ... neither were from hugs.lgbt posts ... one was a reply to one of my posts by a mutual, the other was a post by that mutual without any hugs.lgbt involvement ...

Did I receive the report because one of those was a reply to a post of mine?

But why the other one?

Also very confused as to why ... the first was a thank you reply to a post from me.

The other was a meme.

The category was "other" but no notes or any other information that I could discern 🤔 🤷‍♂️

A recent change allows someone to make a report and choose to forward the report to all instances mentioned in the report.

Here is a random post that had a couple different instances mentioned in it and see the forward... (Note, I canceled the report after screenshot.)

Aha! That makes sense ... except why report a toot that is nothing more than "Thanks!"

🤷‍♂️😵‍💫

@paul @riversidebryan Also, it's possible to make a report by accident (not easy, because it requires a couple clicks, but if there's nothing at all in the reason and no posts quoted, that's a possibility, especially if someone is drunk or high and using a phone client)

@riversidebryan @paul Been there, almost did that once, caught it before sent thankfully (what happened was I was trying to report the post ABOVE it in my feed...)

@mybarkingdogs @paul

Perfectly understandable!

I once accidentally blocked the entire mastodon.social instance instead of a single user there for posting nudity w/o CW ... and it was a full month before I realized why my mastodon.social friends were so quiet suddenly 🤦‍♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@riversidebryan @paul Haha yeah, accidental blocks are even easier to do than accidental reports

@mybarkingdogs @riversidebryan

I almost accidentally blocked my self-hosted instance. That would have been a mess to clear up.
