I have added the most popular Fediverse software to the sample config. Firefish versioning needs a custom regex 😬
Anything that's older than ca. 1-3 months gets silenced by this config, and versions that are ca. 1 year or older get suspended.
The script will demote any suspend to silence if the server knows about a follow relationship.
The current sample config will block around 4000 outdated servers 😱

Scripts to identify abandoned versions of Mastodon and push a blocklist, or automatically manage using ready-made blocklists: https://codeberg.org/GunChleoc/mastodon-scripts/src/branch/main/blocklists
Update:
- Fix comparison logic
- Add 2 domains with non-standard versioning to sample allowlist
Update:
- Push block update if only the comment changed
- Never block your own domain
- Improve formatting of console output
- Add firebird.com domains with non-standard versioning to sample allowlist

Hey, #Mastodon users and #MastoAdmin thinking about Threads!
1: Users:
A: You can limit who can send you DMs/PMs! You can also limit notifications!
B: You can also block a site entirely for yourself.
See attached pics for how.
2: Instance administrators:
If you don't want to block threads.net entirely, consider these options for your userbase's safety:
A: Between "Full federation" and "Suspend" there is LIMIT, which hides content from an instance unless a user either follows the user posting it, or searches for it.
B: There is also "Reject media," which means you never cache a remote site's attachments. This de facto makes all such content sensitive ("unavailable"), requiring an additional click to view.

What happened when I emailed 3000 #Mastodon admins about a critical vulnerability

One month old today🎂MyonlinePi.uk
I think I now have only one remaining issue with my Mastodon instance.
I had lots of problems with the initial installation. So when this was finally successful I was so relieved I jumped straight in, imported my previous accounts and started using the @admin for everything. This name is becoming increasingly annoying.
Is there any way to rename or alias the @admin account? The account has owner privilege and is really the only active account on the instance.
