@kevindalley @Gargron Full statement:
Hello everyone! We’ve seen a large number of spam direct posts from mastodon.social. We have temporarily limited federation with them.
Apologies for the inconvenience, we plan to reassess/reenable full federation tomorrow if the issue is resolved.

We are using “limited” federation. This setting means that we only receive and process events for people who are followed by our users...
