Receipts are biased towards patterns in staff behavior or pervasive patterns among users with staff approval, as that generally won't be solved with a federated report. A one-off user action taken out of context, without any sign of staff endorsement, isn't enough to end up on one of these lists because it's not indicative of an instance's moderation policies. The one exception is receipts for legally risky media: I don't publish receipts for those, but it should be easy to verify them if you need to.
I use archive links instead of screenshots. Screenshots pose accessibility issues, can be doctored, and are easy to take out of context. I use archive links instead of screenshots. Screenshots pose accessibility issues, can be doctored, and are easy to take out of context.
### Receipt criteria
Receipts are biased towards patterns in staff behavior or pervasive patterns among users with staff approval, as that generally won't be solved with a federated report. A one-off user action taken out of context, without any sign of staff endorsement, isn't enough to end up on one of these lists because it's not indicative of an instance's moderation policies.
Receipts revolving around slur usage depend on context. Slurs used in reclaimed contexts aren't grounds for defederation. Patterns of slur usage in discriminatory contexts would warrant adding a receipt. I'm a native English speaker, so I mainly consider English slurs. I give the benefit of doubt to users who aren't native English speakers when using English slurs, depending on context. When I'm unsure, I ask for feedback from other mods from the relevant marginalized group.
Some receipts aren't reasons to block, but exist to contextualize other receipts. For example: I may mention that an instance has open-registration only to highlight that the instance's moderation policies will allow additional bad actors in the future.
One exception is receipts for legally risky media (e.g. sexual depictions of minors): I don't publish archive links for those. It should be easy to verify them yourself if you need to; I'll provide a user handle if necessary.
