@colinstu You can turn it on and see the results it catches. If you haven't received any spam on mastodon, then I wouldn't turn it on. You'll know when you need it.

@ivory I'm the instance admin so I've been keeping up on the spam cleanup x)
Just curious about the mechanics of it were. I know the masto folks are trying to figure out something at the server level as well but it's tricky.

@colinstu There's a few rules in place. An account without followers and not following anyone, no profile photo, not following you, mentioning you and other users in a new post, etc. It's something we will continue to improve over time. But the goal was to get something out quickly to stop this initial problem. 🙂

@ivory @colinstu Just jumping in to say: Ivory has been taking a very pragmatic approach to gaps in native Mastodon functionality (trying to get ahead of spam filtering, quote-posts, etc) and it's GREAT to see. Still my favorite Mastodon experience!
