there’s been no tooling improvements to my knowledge that would improve things for Black and Brown users. I can be fair and say the noise (that I’ve noticed) has quieted or shifted. It’s not as many people telling others how to use their own accounts.
There’s still the weird religious folk that think Mastodon is the best thing since sliced bread and get upset that others don’t view it similarly.
The Fediverse is largely an echo chamber, you’re right about that. Dissent and disagreement are frowned upon and looked at as creating disharmony. There’s no fix for that outside of education and the Fediverse growing exponentially
To help make things better: I’d suggest always advocating for better tooling, encouraging donations to admins and devs, being honest about the shortcomings of the space and not operating from a space of cope. Find well moderated instances that acknowledge hardships and Black and Brown folk, follow those people and encourage people in your life to join those spaces.
