Today I received an unprecedented 123 reports from twit.social users who had been targeted by crypto spam. The spam accounts all were from mastodon.social.

I've suspended all the spammers that you reported - thank you! - but now we're going to have to keep an eye on mastodon.social. I know it's the default Masto instance, but it's up to them to prevent the mass creation of spamming accounts.

Otherwise I may have to block the instance.

@leo They're clearly aware of the problem and working to fix it, and realize the consequences of not doing that, but I hear you, and it needed to be said.

Thank you. 👍​
