After the discovery of a racist account yesterday, @PSiReN went through other accounts on the instance and discovered the instance is a cesspit of racism, including constant use of the N word, and accusations that minorities are criminals.
Therefore Syzito.xyz is defederating from its first instance, @mugicha.club.
What is normal etiquette in these circumstances, should we ping their admin? #Mastodon#Admin#Fediblock
so this mastodon 4.2.0 beta apparently has some kind of hashtag thing where they keep them separate at the end and clumps them together when they're in the last line of a toot so let's see if it works
Is there any way to have my instance fetch posts/notes after they've been sent? For example if I encounter a new person, I can't see any of their posts unless they're pinned. Or is that just a limitation of the fediverse, if your instance didn't see it when it happened, it doesn't exist? #help#sysadmin#instanceadmin#hajkey#iceshrimp
oh right here's some #stuff i made in like 10 minutes
it's a #mastodonBot that toots the system info (cpu usage, ram usage, disk usage, and uptime) of the server it's running on), which is something that may be useful to #instanceAdmins, and just neat in general, i suppose
It's about how marginalized communities such #blackTwitter or people with #disabilities are using social medias like Twitter and the Fediverse, and about how we could make the #Fediverse more welcoming. I think it's a must read for any #moderator or #instanceAdmin
It is my intention to block any commercial companies operating fediverse servers from accessing mastodon.radio users and content.
I think that companies like meta building fediverse compatible services is an existential threat to this network and the first step in Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.
I frequently see posts where instance admins are bemoaning Mastodon's lack of a given feature. Many times these are features that other Fedi microblogging systems like Akkoma/Pleroma already implement well.
So why aren't those as popular? Why are folks sticking with Mastodon?
