@Draekos I'm happy to see you more energetic and motivated! We've been worried about you for a while.
@vahnj Chosa-containing speech is good as well, though.
hot take: Masto should not focus on acquiring new users
it should focus on providing its users a safe, stable, reliable place to form a community, and allow users to join organically
trying to emulate other systems by incorporating their flaws is a terrible idea and guess against the whole ethos behind most people who came here
@kellerfuchs @Felthry *hugs you both!* <3
@mawr We've never been all that comfortable with zero-tolerance policies. It's possible that someone might simply not know that some word they use is a slur, or might not recognise that some stereotype they have is a stereotype, or that some behavior they've engaged in is discriminatory. I know we've had our fair share of "wait, that's a slur?" moments, and I'd like to think we've learned from them.
@JulieSqveakaroo But it does, though! That's the whole point of growing a fruit-bearing shrub.
@Mewt You know, Felthry was just thinking a couple weeks ago that it should try to meet you. And then we see you on here!
@lizardsquid We've been well enough. You?
Masto Admin PSA, ElasticSearch, EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
ElasticSearch is trivial to find, both using zmap or shodan.
Please PLEASE PLEASE firewall your ElasticSearch server. I don't care how you do it, what wrapper you use, etc. Just FIREWALL ALL THE PORTS APPLICABLE [9200/9300]
If you don't you put everyone on the fediverse's safety at risk.
Headmate to @Felthry, still figuring out how things are after a long absence.
