@Vishsai @jamewils @iamshadab @thewire Do you mean creating a new instance by adding an extra letter to url or creating a new ID on the same instance by adding an extra letter to ID?

For the latter, it's the responsibility of the instance admin and for the former, well, we all have been visiting google.com and not gogle.com, right? I mean website impersonation is a solved problem using SSL certs (organization name etc.)

@Vishsai @jamewils @iamshadab @thewire @Gargron @kushal ummm no. The domain (instance url) will serve as the verification method.

E.g. I'll know @[email protected] is official and not the @thewire or any other ID after I have found the link for the same on their website.

@jamewils @iamshadab @thewire Organization like The Wire should host their own Mastodon instance with their employees having account there e.g. @[email protected]

It'll also solve the verification ("blue tick") issue.

@Gargron @tachyons @Koshy @girishNaught @Ca_Gi @host I request everyone to please report the rabid toots and users from inditoot.com which violate the CoC https://mastodon.social/about/more quoting the exact rule being violated.

Please do not report just because you don't agree with the politics of the user. #BlockInditoot

@Deepsealioness @sanjayuvacha @Shudraism @jnukiladki His account has been banned from the Mastodon.social after I reported his xenophobic toots.

But it's not at all enough. Why should the users of mastodon.social be subjected to the bigotry and xenophobia while browsing the "Federated timeline"? #BlockInditoot

@Gargron @tachyons @Koshy @girishNaught @Ca_Gi @host I will continue to report the fascist, xenophobic toots, users from inditoot.com till the instance gets banned from the mastodon.social

And with inditoot.com being a cesspool of rabid Hindu supremacists there is no dearth of content to report. #BlockInditoot
