Elizabeth Licata, moderator of the Facebook group, WNY Gardeners, poses for a photograph on July 8, 2021 in Buffalo, N.Y. Moderating a Facebook gardening group is not without challenges. Facebook's algorithms sometimes flag the word " hoe" as "violating community standards," apparently referring to a different word, one without an "e" at the end that is nonetheless often misspelled as the garden tool. Licata said it has been futile trying to reach Facebook to correct the mistake. (Elizabeth Licata via AP)
