StefanAnyone know a reason to not find accounts that use a signup IP that is a known Tor exit node as a signal of being a bot?
I'm looking at IPs by doing: Query: <reversed-ip>.dnsel.torproject.org → resolves to 127.0.0.2 if it's a Tor exit.
Grow Your Own Services 🌱Fediverse admins,
You can get a headstart on moderating your server by using ready-made server blocklists. There are many different lists to choose from, pick the one that suits your server's needs the best.
There's a guide for admins about using ready-made server blocklists on Mastodon here:

There's a good roundup of many different blocklists by @oli at:

Mastodon pode incluir alerta de marca registrada no instalador
Em breve quem for instalar um novo servidor Mastodon e o endereço da instância incluir "mastodon" ou "mstdn" poderá ver um alerta de marca registrada ao executar mastodon:setup.
A mensagem diz "o nome Mastodon é uma marca registrada e o uso dele é restrito", seguido por um link para saber mais sobre esta política.
A atualização ainda não foi aprovada e não faz parte do código, mas isso pode mudar nos próximos dias.
Clair (KD3BCC)How easy is it to move my current instance to an entirely new machine?
How much am I going to have to remember about how I setup my "s3" buckets for media, etc? How much am I going to have to transfer over?
My OS is still supported, but it's getting to be a ltitle long in the tooth, and I want to swap from Ubuntu to Debian.
I want to move to using containers; how hard is that going to be?
How easy is it for me to test this? 🤔
Who's done this before? I'm sure plenty.

Ryan WildThe Universeodon relay is now back up and running and migrated to our new environment.
I'll keep an eye for a little longer just to make sure everything continues to work as expected but it should be fine as far as I can see.
Just as a quick note for the #MastoAdmin community - The Universeodon relay is about to be migrated to new infrastructure.
I'm expecting there to be a short blip where the relay will be down while I move the config and DB from the relay to the new server and switch our load balancer to use the new server.
This will then be the final item on our legacy server cluster that needs migrating (Which is frankly long overdue!)
