Mastodawn

I am going through very difficult days. My health is deteriorating daily, and I find myself helpless before my children. All I want is to regain my strength to care for them. I urgently need help to cover the costs of medical tests and treatment that I cannot afford. Your support or a Boost (Retweet) could make a huge difference for my family.

Etaf's Family Deserves a Chance to Stay Together Now

Under a tattered tent, Atifa sits with her family, watching her children’s pale faces as they rest on worn blankets. Since 2011, she has carried the weight of a fatherless home, raising two children with a heart full of memories and shoulders burdened by loss. The days of safety have slipped away, replaced by years of conflict, displacement, and the creeping threat of hunger.

¡Hola Fediverso! 🚀

He decidido mudar mi presencia digital a mi propia instancia de #Mastodon corriendo sobre mi propio servidor. Tras un viaje de migración y actualizaciones, finalmente tengo las llaves de mi casa digital en ms.sptral.com.

Un nuevo comienzo desde cero, priorizando la soberanía tecnológica y el código abierto. ¡Nos leemos por aquí! 🌐🐧

Blocking Aggressive Crawlers

I just updated the blocklist for the Mastodon and BookWyrm instances. The logs showed meta-webindexer getting stuck in ridiculous infinite /rss/rss/ loops — a total waste of server resources pushing BookWyrm to 100% CPU utilization.

Additional Bans:

Meta-Webindexer/ExternalAgent: Recursive scraping gone rogue.

ClaudeBot: Keeping local content out of AI training sets.

Semrush & SERanking: Commercial SEO bots have no business here.

If you’re self-hosting and notice weird CPU spikes or odd path patterns, I highly recommend auditing your User Agents. It’s an easy way to protect your performance and your users' privacy. 🛠️
