Gregory's ServerThis is by far the worst spam campaign I’ve seen in my 7 years here on the fediverse

@Josh its just lot of posts from what brand new user accounts on hundreds of different mastodon instances with a few random users tagged and an image that contains the link to a discord server. @jerry Honestly here I have not seen a single report… Are the targeted instances limited ? @RGrunblatt I have been limiting them. I’ve had perhaps 250 reports or so today across perhaps 100 different instances @jerry Do you have maybe some part of the spam messages I could search for on my server ? Because I find it weird that none of the users of my server made some report about being spammed… @RGrunblatt the spams are targeted - they are tagging 5-10 accounts in each spam message. I don’t know what sort of algorithm is driving who gets included, but I’m guessing your instance hasn’t had any of its members tagged in the spam runs @jerry *Homer from the back of the room* Worst spam campaign so far. 😬   @weilawei @drsbaitso I’ve spend the last two hours handling spam reports and wading through recently created new accounts on remote servers looking for and proactively suspending new spam accounts and limiting their domains |
