Does anyone else know of other tools for managing blocklists besides FediBlockHole?

Specifically looking for tools that assist in either creating blocklists or importing them into fediverse software. Thanks!

Server admins!

If you're creating custom emoji, remember to fill in the section marked "Shortcode" with a short text description of the emoji. Blind people's screen reader software will be able to read the shortcode aloud so that they can hear what the emoji is.

If the emoji's shortcode includes multiple words, split them up with underscores like_this or CamelCase, so that screen readers will be able to read each word correctly.

The Fediverse works best when instances are small, tight-knit communities where members know each other and most importantly knows instance admin(s), understand rules and are ok with them. Big instance admins meeting Meta under NDA, now backlash regarding @fosstodon enforcing English-only are good examples why you should run single-user instance or join only a small one :fedi: :mastodon:

I decided to take restrictive actions against @aeris@firefish.imirhil.fr which started replaying all their toots since 2017, which is severely disruptive for my TL and probably everyone following him.

You can see here the public block: nixos.paris/about

I reached out to the admin of that instance and will wait until they correct their behavior.

If you haven't restored from your backup recently, then you don't have a backup.

After using XenForo community software for a while I figured I like writing in Markdown much more ✍️ Rich-text editors, bulletin-board code (BB code) or plain HTML - nothing beats :markdown: So I will keep :mastodon: upgrade guide in my :writefreely2: blog since it is the most actively read post of all times there 🤓 fedi.dev/gytis/update-mastodon

Moin,

kleine Info:
Ich habe vor ein paar Minuten den Server von video-cave-v2.de aktualisiert.
Unter anderem wurde PHP, Yunohost und der Kernel aktualisiert.
An der Peertube Version hat sich nichts geändert.

Dir gefällt meine Instanz? Dann würde ich mich über Spenden freuen.
Infos zu diesem Thema findest du hier:

Beste Grüße
Euer Admin von video-cave-v2.de

Is there something like rapidblock.org that has a CSV or JSON for commonly blocked fedi instances?

I was using the rapidblock JSON file to check for bad instances subscribed to my . It's been a while since I ran the script, but I remembered today as I was just doing some light maintenance and realised that rapidblock is gone.

@chrisamaphone well the one's I'd use to let people know about this are:









I'm assuming that you mean MicroBlogFedi and not solely admins for the Mastodon software, in which case its good to use the right terms to avoid irritating those admins. Could be wrong!

Are there any banner networks for servers? How do you advertise your instance?

For creating a Fediverse instance, do you need to have a domain?

Had a couple of answers from my GoToSocial account (local members), but hashtags weren't a thing back when I posted it. So reposting here :)

If you're an admin of a mastodon/fediverse instance you should update your robots.txt to block "GPTBot", the crawler made by OpenAI to feed their machine learning models such as ChatGPT.

This is the easiest way right now to prevent public content from being crawled and fed into their datasets, and due to the nature of federation it works better the more instances that do it.

fediverse.to (which is one of the first search results to come up for "fediverse" links on their homepage to far-alt-right Masto instances.

I was looking for a good entry point site for beginners to link to from an article. Certianly won't be fediverse.to!

What do the "Our followers there" and "their followers here" numbers mean? They don't make intuitive sense to me.

If you're not aware, Mastodon 4.2 will directly break relay.fedi.buzz, the hashtag relay that many small instances (like this one) use to pull in posts from other instances based on the being used.

This is a massive degradation of function for small instances and our ability to participate in many hashtag-based social activities here like and and and other as well.

I've left a rather long comment to this effect here:

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p

They're trying to solve a real problem but they're absolutely breaking us by doing it this way.

If you have a github account, and/or are a small instance user or administrator, you may also wish to comment.

Is there an easy way to customize the appearance (aka Skin/Theme) of the Webinterface on an instance-level?

I can add custom CSS; but I don’t know (or want to try out) *all* the CSS classes for items I'd like to change. It's mostly color changes (purple to another color) – but there are buttons, text, links, hashtags etc...

Search and replace for the HEX value and then add the *whole CSS* to the custom field seems a bit overkill…
