Internal data from the ABC show the harmful content moderators are exposed to weekly, sometimes even daily. But the organisation’s response is one many others can learn from.
There are varying levels of moderation, and not all moderation is unpaid volunteer like lemmy and reddit. Not all moderation is just morons fighting or porn being posted where it shouldn’t. There are dedicated moderation teams that handle the worst things like child sexual abuse verification and reporting at sites like Facebook, etc. Those are pretty objective based determinations that don’t need to handle moderation criticism or concerns in any way shape or form.
