It's really great to discover so many new instances that I have never heard of before, but a bit disappointing to see how many of them are Open Registration and abandoned, leaving them subject to spam bots.
About 1 in every 5 accounts that oslo.town encounters seems to be a proactive spam bot now. It’s ridiculous.
(I say "proactive" spam bot because I imagine there are many more, but the passive ones don't @mention people)
@dustin On the counter side; I guess this documentation is a spammer's dream. "Oh, so these are all the instances that exist, are open registration, and are poorly moderated!”
