Dear Twitter ex-pats. When we all flounced out of Twitter loudly proclaiming we were going to Mastodon this sent a message to trolls, nazis that they could set up servers & come here.
If anyone gets harrassed with hatespeech pls note that that is not the culture of Mastodon. Please report & block those users. If you notice a pattern from the same weird domain, block that domain, write a post of the server name w/ a hashtag fediblock so your server admin can follow up & block it for everyone.
@caffeneko Mastodon offers a great feature where you can block an entire instance.
If there are known hate group instances, name and shame, so we can all block them outright.
(Don't block indieweb.social, just showing how one would block an instance domain using your toot as an example).

I found it helpful.

Iโm a newbie here so find all good advice & where to find things helpful. I thought the post really useful. False allegations of racism & mansplaining irritate me though unsurprisinglyโฆ
