@rmflight the bottom line is: mastodon.social is too big for it's own sake, and too big not to be a risk for the rest of fedi.

Other instances already started silencing it or outright defederating from it, because of the amount of work these spam waves bring to every other instance admin out there.

This is a good moment to find a new, smaller instance, and move. The more instances defederate from m.s the harder a move will become.
