I'm building a Q&A/community on top of Nostr and using those same concepts:
Original Author posts a kind:1 note with a question
A bot sends a kind:1985 note (NIP-32 https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/32.md) that labels the content.
It can be done by the author (self-label), by an app, or by third parties (moderators/curators), depending on the trust model.
Other clients can decide to use that classification/label
--
For moderation purposes. If the behavior is closer to abuse (spam, scams, harassment...), use NIP-56 (Reporting). Reporting harmful/should-be-moderated content.
Thank you for explaining how it works. I'm building a decentralized platform and NOSTR was the first choice as base for signing messages and identities. There is the will to include other protocols (even IRC is supported as entry method) but whenever approaching AT there are always obstacles.
Will put on the list for a deeper review.
This is something you opt-in to. Two concepts, labels and moderation policy.
You subscribe to "labelers" which will apply labels to posts. You can subscribe to many labelers. Some labelers will be generic or some will be focused on a certain idea/niche. You might have a labeler focusing on nsfw content or another for human vs ai content. Or one who just tags spiders. Labels can be anything, and are stand alone data objects in the atproto ecosystem.
Your moderation policy is up to you, on how to handle those above labels. You can decide to allow, warn, or block for each label applied by your labelers. Warn shows a content warning you must click through first to see.
Bsky does have a default labeler and moderation settings when you sign up, which you might be experiencing.
