@cinnamonvector In fairness I'm not sure if I know anyone on the instance in question (it was boosted by a friend) - but it was something I'd seen others talk about, especially with this instance. At least migration is easy :)

@gc I wonder if there's scope in future for untrusted instances to have default restrictions on visibility and follow-requests, whilst still allowing organic following to function

Also ich weiß ja nicht, irgendwie sollte man da vielleicht noch "Verpackung" dazu schreiben und es nicht gerade zwischen den Infos zum Produkt platzieren, so ist das ja ein offenes Tor für absichtliche oder unabsichtliche Missverständnisse 😬

Trotzdem probiert und für gut befunden.

Last Boost: Pretty frustrating to have to be looking at shifting to another instance just to avoid being blocked-by-association.
Thanks to @SlyCat for the invite, I'm likely to be moving to meow myself to try and avoid this, but I worry that this may happen again there and my social graph will be at the whim of admins (and maybe this opens an avenue for trolls to target an instance to harm the users there)

Hello dear people who read me! My home instance will defederate from mastodon.social and mastodon.online in a little less than a week. The instances are known to be too big, not well enough moderated and thus unsafe.

If you want to follow accounts on safer instances like weirder.earth, you might want to consider moving.

(Weirder.earth is neither the first nor will it be the last instance to take this step.)

@gc ah darn, that would be a deal breaker for me too. I enjoyed what I've played of Vermintide after they had the free weekend, but only ever played with bots or private parties with my brother+bots?

I don't know if it's common knowledge but just in case I want to share it:

If you're like me and want to enjoy seeing images without any crop, there is an option for that!!

Finished off the latest season of American Horror Story (NYC) - which has completely managed to lodge a (not unwelcome) earworm in my head - although, I don't think I'll be able to listen to it quite the same way again

Sometimes I see posts on here like “mastodon is too serious and businesslike, it needs more selfies and shitposts” and I’m like are we even using the same website but then I remember we very literally are not
