Disabled.social has reluctantly chosen to block gaygeek.social for the following reasons:
1. Lack of moderation and open signups have allowed ableist and transphobic accounts to appear there
2. Numerous accounts impersonating our members has appeared there with little done by admin to stop the flood
If the admin team shows they are willing to moderate and adjust away from open-signup, then we will revisit the block and determine if we can open connection again.

For us targeted:
1. Go into your Public Profile Settings
2. Look for Reach section.
3. Uncheck box that allows for follow requests to be automatically approved.
Yes, this will create a queue to examine, but anyone suspended gets kicked off the queue. It can limit mass follows from harassers to some degree.
Another good box to uncheck is under "Privacy" regarding who sees your follower list.
We're working on back-end stuff to stop this, but in the meantime, this can help.
