How transparent is moderation on Mastodon? Is it common for servers to publish a log of what gets blocked, removed, banned? Or to share who the moderators are?

I feel like part of what made things so frustrating on the birdsite was how much of an unaccountable black box the moderation process was. And part of what makes Mastodon so charming is how human it all is.

I assume admins are often sole moderators on small instances, but the two seem like different interests.

@will common to share who mods are; mods actively need to communicate with each other to do their jobs so not having a point of contact on the fediverse is a red flag for me

logs of moderation actions against other instances are usually available for signed‐in users and sometimes available for other users

moderation actions against individual users or posts are typically not publicized; it causes more harm than good
