Just re-followed a bunch of mutuals that were stuck in “pending” limbo while my personal #fediverse server was being “protected” by @cloudflare’s “Bot Fight” service. Turns out it’s anathema to #Mastodon and many other servers’ API exchanges.
So now my inbox is finally starting to fill up again with those people’s posts. Hello again and welcome!
I run a fediverse relay that is open to queer and furry friendly instances. It is in approval mode, so feel free to send a request and I'll get to it when I get a chance. If you DM me, I'll probably get to it faster.

Fedi admins: what are you planning to do about the Online Safety Act from the UK government?
If your instance is hosted elsewhere but with users, visitors or federating servers in the UK, what are you intending to do about it?
Geoblock the UK?
If you're a #FediAdmin I'd really recommend checking out this guide on the Online Safety Act by @iftas

Question for anyone who knows about this. Every subdomain of this site (which is only two at the moment) is exposed via Cloudflare Tunnel directly. So it takes the place of the reverse proxy. I'm sure I could set up Nginx as well, and point Cloudflare tunnel at it instead of at the subdomains individually. Is there any real advantage to doing it this way, in terms of performance, or security, or whatever? Would doing it this way allow me to do anything worthwhile, I can't do with my current setup.

🐘 Hey Mastodon Admins! Want to supercharge your server’s timeline?
I’m Chris, and I run relay.uggs.io — a personally-managed, fast, and curated Mastodon relay, built with love for the Fediverse. 💖
✅ Free & open to join — anyone’s welcome!
✅ No corporate backing — just one nerd with solid hardware and a passion for federation.
✅ High-quality stream — inactive or broken instances are pruned regularly.
✅ Solid stack — PostgreSQL, Redis, SSDs, HTTP/3 via Caddy, and more under the hood.
You’ll get more diverse content, more interactions, and a more vibrant feed. 🌍
Got questions or need help setting it up? Ping me at @chris — always happy to help!

What apps you using for #mastodon on Android?
I'm ideally looking for something with access to admin and moderation stuff too.

We received the following user/ post #report from toot.community. The report was REJECTED:

IANAL so I've blocked all traffic for all UK users trying to access this instance. I'll need clearer guidance on age verification for Mastodon/ActivityPub, and I don't have the time/resources to deal with whatever's going on with the law in the UK. If you're visiting from the UK, you'll unfortunately see this page. #fediadmin #ageverification

In an effort to be more transparent we are making our traffic statistics for nsfw.social publicly available. Only visits to the nsfw.social website are detected. Visits and logins using various fediverse mobile apps are not represented or recorded.
No identifying information / IP addresses are recorded.

Heads up my favorite perverts! New version of #Sharkey just dropped! As with the previous updates I'll try to get this installed over the weekend. #fediadmin #nsfwadmin #sharkeyadmin #administrivia
