@louis @rysiek @pearlbear the spam would just move to the next instance that's well connected, or they'd change the attacks to use multiple instances all at once; keeping the spammers targeting m.s is a good thing for the entire fediverse as we build out better tools to fight spam across the entire fediverse.

@thisismissem @rysiek @pearlbear If what you describe would be true they would have already done that. I think you are engaging in conjecture.

There are currently 12,137 known active Mastodon servers and mastodon.social is the only one with regular spam issues. For us in fact it is the only one since we started operating and now it is a daily issue.

Your narrative is sugarcoating at beat.

@louis if m.s is such a problem for your userbase, which has a relative niche interest area compared to the general public, I'm wondering why you've opted to *not* defederate it?
