Some words about Mastodon moderation:

1. It’s hard. No decision is easy and there’s lots of gray area even with explicit rules.
2. We’ll sometimes debate for a long time on a single post. We do our best to make the right call.
3. Even so, we sometimes make mistakes. We’re willing to accept appeals when that happens.
4. We get a lot of things right. You can’t even imagine some of the traumatic things we see.

Re-reading your question it looks to me that I didn't answer (get) your question @Simon John.

If you refer to user name, and hosting data I guess the answer is yes, it looks like plain text from the front end.
The password apparently at least can be protected by a general password manager.

Has there been general questioning of #FileZilla's safety?
Is there some recommendation for linux desktops?

“It’s very dangerous for #motorcycles to be around #Teslas,” Former #NHTSA senior #safety adviser Missy Cummings said.

Good news: Automakers are finally realizing that car touchscreens are a disaster.

Drivers hate them, and they're also dangerously distracting. Buttons and knobs are poised for a comeback.

I like this trend of painting "unauthorized" crosswalks.

Cities almost always rush to erase them. That shows local agencies *can* move quickly to change streetscapes -- they just choose not to when residents request safety improvements. People should know that!
