Ok. The roster so far is:

  • Infosec.exchange (mastodon)
  • pixel.Infosec.exchange (pixelfed)
  • video.Infosec.exchange (peertube)
  • relay.Infosec.exchange (activitypub relay)
  • risky.af (alt mastodon)

What’s next? I think I promised some people here bookwyrm

@jerry Do you approve a relay subscriber instance manually? My instance is in status "waiting for approval" although all other instances approved me automatically. It's just new to me.

btw: Thank you for doing all this. I really hope this pays off for you because I know it's a lot of work

@sbani I do approve them manually - I take a look at what instances are about before approving - I am not concerned about particular topics, but I don’t want hate instances/troll farms/etc subscribing - and several have tried.

@jerry Absolutely! I would do the same. Thank you for clarification

Maybe it also makes sense to have a landing page (like this https://relay.beckmeyer.us/) that gives a node owner a little more details? Nothing fancy, just a little text that says "manual approval needed".

Seems like other relay admins use the same software for that.

@sbani I approved your request, btw. You should see activity now
