apparently my "profile" has been "hidden" by the "moderators" of "mastodon.ie"

is this that digital utopia you mentioned?

@Standplaats_KRK you can still post though, they haven't banned you from your instance, they've just moderated you on theirs
@me yeah, but why? Never interacted with them.
@Standplaats_KRK Gargron is hidden too, they're hiding everything from mastodon.social because of spam https://mastodon.ie/@mastodonie/114434871493709611
Mastodon.ie (@[email protected])

We have put a limit on mastodon.social again because it was being a pain in the face with spam. If you see a message on a .social profile like "This profile has been hidden by the moderators of mastodon.ie." it is almost guaranteed to be for that reason. The same is true for hidden notifications related to accounts from .social. Follows and mutuals should work normally.

@me Oh, that actually does make a lot of sense!
@Standplaats_KRK @me My account was hidden because I’d used a cross poster five years ago, I emailed support and they unhid me.
@Standplaats_KRK It means that mastodon.ie has taken the moderation decision that, on their server, your profile should not be shown to people who have not already followed it. it's probably a bad decision, but I have no pull with them to get them to rescind it. #lang_en
@Standplaats_KRK every time someone tries to pretend this place is a digital utopia I simply recall the eighteen million times some weird little gnome of a server mod did some stupid shit and smile serenely
@Standplaats_KRK It's likely not your profile specifically, but the whole of mastodon.social that has been muted/limited bc of the spam that's going around. So, probably not personal. 🌼
