I hope mastodon.social figure out how to handle their spam problems soon or we will defederate.

@neauoire I've been trying to report some of the spam. But the reporting system seems to be broken.

@neauoire Did something happen the past 12 hours? I've seen multiple ppl talking about a spam problem.

(I've mainly not moved b/c of inertia.)

@cr1901 there's a massive number of bots joining the instance and making it hell for everyone.

@neauoire Can you limit the instance instead of full blown defederate (so that I can still see your posts, since we're mutuals)?

Sadly, my VPS isn't enough to host a Fediverse instance.

@neauoire TBH I was thinking that I should raise a question about silencing their instance…

@alderwick I agree, but it seems to have calmed down a bit. I'd wait

@metasyn @alderwick you can check a box that sends a warning to their instance. Otherwise it's just the merveilles mods that sees it.

@neauoire didn't see any spam myself, but if that because I'm on it? 😬🙈
