There is an ongoing spam attack on the fediverse for the last couple of days. It's more widespread than before, as attackers are targeting smaller servers to create accounts. Before, usually only mastodon.social was targeted and our team could take care of it. For server administrators out there: If you don't need open registrations, switch over to approval mode. If you do, blocking disposable e-mail providers is a massive stopgap to the problem. Mastodon also supports hCaptcha.
@Gargron lol what is going on.
@Gargron The French Revolutionary Calendar had 10 days a week. They used it for 12 years. As far as I know, it did not lead to space-time difficulties, but it did lead to Napoleon, who was a bit of a disruption in himself. So if a French John Lennon in say about 1800 sang, "Oooh I need your love babe, ten days a week," it would not be hyperbole, but perhaps just a manifestation of the "many worlds" version of multiverse theory.
@Gargron I think someone needs "Help!" there.
