Anyone know of mastodon instances that are now using whitelist mode?
Are any of these semi-closed communities thriving and healthy?
Curious what folks thoughts are
Calling Masto Admins that are hosting their own hardware:
Do you like having it local?
How do you avoid downtime?
Why are you hosting locally rather than using a VPS in the cloud?
I'm assuming that most of the mastodon instances require approval at this point?
Anyone else getting assaulted with bot registrations again?
Meta, moderation, MAGA
Anyone else seeing a large increase in the following:
- maga instances
- Christian instances
- bot advertising
- anti-islamic rhetoric
It's concerning. Think it's related to the election or is this our new normal?
lewd! but not rude!
