We probably want to set the severity, reject_media, reject_reports and comments. This means we need a human readable, easily python-readable and structured file format. Since Python 3.11 got native support for [toml](https://toml.io/) and it supports [Array of Tables](https://toml.io/en/v1.0.0#array-of-tables), I'd prefer to use this. +Since we have several attributes for a domain blog, a simple `.txt` file might not be sufficient.
