I’m hoping this gets to the right folks who can point me to an #AuDHD#neurodivergent and #actuallyautistic friendly #instance on #mastodon ? One that is welcoming and focused if possible on the adult experience as opposed to a parenting group focused on kids.🙏
Uuuuuh why the fuck am I seeing posts from TRUTH SOCIAL when I'm on mastodon.gamedev.place? Is truth fucking social seriously #federated with this #instance???
If you get a #followRequest without your account being locked, the #admins of your #instance have paid attention in advance and warn you about a suspicious account. You can still allow it as a follower, but the one today was indeed extremely suspicious and rubbish.
Friendly reminder: To thank your admins and instance for all their work you can #donate! Find the possibilities on your instance's page. The #Fediverse is #adfree but good #moderation/building instances costs time/money. And - tada:
Une #instance ou un #pod#Friendica à me recommander pour ouvrir une page d'info #antifasciste ?
Ou un autre réseau tout aussi ouvert ?
(Friendica fédère avec #Diaspora*, c'est ce qui me botte)
I'm on the search for a well run #Instance that is #Meta / #Threads free. I have #Mastofriends in #Europe particularly so any instances there that are safe (and that would HAVE me) would be cool. But in any case, I'm after a new safe home where I'm sure the "blocked_domains.csv" will take effect, and that can tolerate an idle fucker who posts a lot of pictures (with Alt Txt, naturally).

metalhead.club will place commercial advertising in Wacken!
Have I lost my mind? Maybe. metalhead.club will probably be the first Fediverse instance to place advertising in "real life"! I'm super excited about this experiment 🤘
To celebrate a one year anniversary of my blog post "A netizen’s guide to Mastodon and the fediverse" [1], I'd like to rerun one of the polls [2] from the article:
Have you ever made a donation to a fediverse server admin?
#introduction: Bonjour, je suis Michaël Lurkin, créateur et #administrateur de l’#instance partageflex.com . Je suis passionné de #musique, de lecture et d’informatique, mais pas que, j’aime aussi parler de tout et de rien, hurler de #rire, et passer un bon moment. Je m’intéresse à tout sauf aux sujets anxiogène, je viens ici pour me détendre, même si bien sûr, je reste ouvert à tous les sujets de la vie quotidienne, bienvenue à tous ceux qui me suivent et qui me suivrons. Voilà, fini 😛

I'm willing to contribute to the the instance, I know search is expensive.
I would not move but SDF is ticking all the boxes, except search, and it goes down regularly when the SSL certificate expires (not an automation problem. It's structural)
A day ago, I and others here and on different domains were hit with a massive spam attack.
Now, thanks to my domain administrators it's completely (mostly) cleared up. I'll bet many of them have been working overtime.
Thank your domain administrators and support them financially if you can. They work hard to keep Mastodon a good place.
Two things I need to find: A new Matrix homeserver (currently on matrix.org) and a good Lemmy instance...
I mean, I could selfhost both of them, but I think that would blow up my available resources...
Edit: I don't want ANY finacial offers. I am here to seek advise, to get into a discussion if an instance is actually fitting. If I would want to a "private" instance, I will do it by myself!
Taliban Shuts Down 'queer.af' Domain, Breaking Mastodon Instance
"The Mastodon instance “queer.af” was effectively shut down by the Taliban, which has begun to operate Afghanistan’s “.af” top level domain after years of inactivity."
I spend so much of my time posting on here struggling with the 500 character limit. And while I get it can be good to "get to the point" - but that can be at the expense of nuance or being polite...
So, do anyone know of any good #Mastodon instances with a high character limit?
(Also, I seriously think you should increase it here, @matt. Come on, it's an instance for writers! We can be trusted. 😉)
It seems there is one last issue with my #Mastodon#instance that we can't figure out - some #emojis (it seems just custom emojis) are just not loading for me. Any ideas how we can fix this? 🆘
