Just a gentle reminder as we've seen an increase in the number of reports with no posts included: please remember to both include a short summary (more than one word) as well as posts in your report. When posts aren't included in a report, that means if they are deleted (by the user or their home instance) we never see them, so checking their timeline doesn't help us determine the cause of the report. We use your report notes to help with that, so more info is better!

Thank you :hachyderm:

Howdy, Hachyderm --

If you've been Hachyderming recently, you've no doubt heard about or have seen the wave of spam that's hit the fedi. We've just finished applying a Mastodon patch that should reduce the overall noise, but as you see spam, please continue to report it. The mod & infra teams will continue to keep an eye out.

PR applied: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/29264

We will be using this thread for communication regarding this issue.

Happy Hachyderming,

The Mod & Infra Teams

Hello Hachyderm,

Over the last few days our team has been reviewing the details of the Threads implementation of ActivityPub and developing a statement regarding federating with Threads. We expect to post an article on our community blog Friday afternoon Pacific Time.

Hi Hachydermians,

We are implementing a new backup solution today. We expect 5-10 minutes of intermittent outages around 1530 UTC on August 26, 2023 while the servers are updated. Thank you for your understanding.

@hachyderm Hi, the "Explore" tab hasn't refreshed in over 2 days.

(Replyguys: this is just a bug report so it eventually gets fixed, not a demand to fix something immediately; I know [and am very sad also] that @nova died and people have other things on their mind. There's no need to lecture me.)

Hello Hachydermia!

We've been receiving a few pings from different sources to Q&A about Meta. Since they're happening in different places, we're going to be including a section about Meta in our July Moderator Minutes, along with some other useful information :)

👋 Hello Hachydermia!

Due to the number of Twitter/Bird Site relay servers that have gone offline after the pricing update to Twitter's API, we have recently starting cleaning up servers that federate with our environment but appear to be offline.

If we removed a server that was functional and it has impacted your experience, please open a ticket on our GitHub issue page and we can evaluate reestablishing access.

Thank you,
Your Moderation Team

#Mastodon has been A+ for keeping up with the latest news from #Russia. Reminds me a bit of Twitter circa Iranian Sea of Green protests in 2009. Lots of solid info, misinformation called out immediately, helpful analysis. Being able to follow hashtags is just straight gas
