New Patreon post on the last two weeks' worth of fedi admin stuff from mastodon.art . In that time we've had about 80 reports (which is standard for us); spammers, scammers, AI users, racism, antisemitism, ableism.

Also the new Mastodon executive director hailing a known abusive racist transphobe as a 'personal hero', so that's great.

#FediAdmin

I only use Mastodon by following people who I like and then reading their posts, in chronological order. I've moved from a bigger Mstodon server to a single-user server.

What's the name of the thing that I want, maybe to subscribe to, to make sure that my server prefetches all of the replies to the posts of people I follow from other servers, since that's definitionally everyone else's but mine?

Does anybody know the admins of https://p.lu?

Years ago I opened my PeerTube channel there very ingenuously, just because the domain name was super cool, but I found myself locked in a PeerTubr server I don't know at all…

Furthermore, by default all newly published videos are blocklisted, and mad publicly available only after admin approval, which takes weeks…

I tried to reach out multiple tiles, both via email and via support form, but I never got any reply.

New blog post!

My very own instance in the Fediverse, powered by @gotosocial is now one year old! 🥳

On that occasion, I wrote a short retrospective blog post talking about how I started my server and how it evolved over that time.

Mapstodon.Space's income from Liberapay has been slowly but steadily dropping since last June. Unfortunately, times are tough for everyone.

If you enjoy Mapstodon.Space, please consider chipping in a few bucks! It will only make the instance more resilient, and every single cent matters :)

🙏Thanks!

Wow, already 3 years on the #Fediverse, meaning I have been running my #Mastodon instance just as long... crazy how fast time flies by...

My instance here in Switzerland is still small, so if someone needs a home, you may join!

New Fedi admin patreon post in which I complain briefly about AI (and the people posting it) doing my head in:

If you have a couple of bucks a month spare and you enjoy mastodon.art existing, consider supporting me? Hopefully the posts on this Patreon demonstrate how much effort and time it takes to host a community like ours.

LearningQuestion:
Is it possible to define that images that don't have #altText do not show up in the trending and explore page?

Somehow it doesn't look reasonable to promote posts that don't respect the community standards.

Good Morning #fediadmin, how can I disable for my entire #Mastodon instance the "follow suggestions" to prevent algorithmic enshittification of this precious and valuable ecosystem?

Dear open registration servers, each day so far this week, I've opened my Mastodon client, only to see slurs, swastikas, and death threat videos of "me" being hanged.

This is the Nazi bar problem. They're standing on the curb and your doors are wide open. Sure, you're kicking them out after they walk in and punch a few customers, but is that really how you want your bar to be known? As the place that apologizes *after* the Nazi assaults you?

With the current US election results rolling in, it looks like we're in for another predictable wave of butthurt GravySeals aching to own the libs in a sad attempt to bring meaning to their poor little wannabe white power lives.

It's time to close registrations and step up moderation to protect the communities you helped grow.

Racism is chasing Black folx off Fedi.
Queerphobia is chasing LGBTQ+ folx off Fedi.
Sexism is chasing women off Fedi.

Do you want another incel white boys club like Twitter? Because inaction is how you get there.

#FediAdmin, #FediMods, don't be a #NaziBar.
