Wer könnte diese #guteIdee passend aufnehmen und weiter geben? Die #fediadmin #fediadmins ?

Für fedisocial.de habe ich ja die Idee, dass man sich z.B. per Mastodon registriert (mit Bestaetigung) und dann n8n daher geht und die zum Approval stehende Registrierung nutzt, um den User im LDAP-Backend einzurichten.

Das wuerde aber bedeuten, dass sich alle ueber Mastodon registrieren muessten, um einen Account im LDAP zu haben, auch wenn sie gar kein Mastodon nutzen wollen.

Hat sonst noch jemand eine Idee? Gibt es vielleicht ein Open Source Tool, was Registrierungen macht und den Account dann im LDAP provisionieren kann, z.B. per Script?

The Glitch-soc fork is cool but need some accessibility enhancements.
One of them is a setting to either show remaining character limit or type charactre count on the edit box, or even both.
this enhancement will be particularly helpful for instances that have higher character limit, and people often struggle to do the math to know how much they have typed.
and it'd be nice to have the quote post outside the more dialog.
also, number system to navigate to various sections of mastodon e.g. home, notification, search, profile, etc, will allow for faster switch.
the autocomplete dialog for usernames are quite sluggish to come up and and it's hard to access them with #screenReader.

We need more Blind people using the direct UI of the instance so that we can give constructive feedback to the dev to improve the experience further.

And now the question is: are the services still federating? Given it was basically a whole day offline (not really, but) some other services I'm subscribed to might have deleted my connection...
Only one way to find out: shout into the void and hope for the best. :pankodance:

It took only four days for @iftas original advice of "block hf.space entirely" to prove itself!

I was expecting at least a few weeks.

@mro

The problem is the default for mastodon and others is flawed and thus dysfunctional for many instances.

I'm personally reaching out to such admins and users. Often it is neglected.

@technik posted a nice guide

#fediadmin please take it seriously.

hey, I saw genAI scam bots federating via ActivityPub using hf.space subdomains, so be careful

Fediverse admins with public servers,

If you want extra advice and info for screening new members wanting to join your server, there's a list of resources compiled by @iftas at:

🌱 https://about.iftas.org/library/url-domain-and-ip-reputation-resources

The resources cover IP addresses, email providers and web addresses. The web address section could also be used for moderating links on platforms that support this.

(Thank you to @Crazypedia for raising this topic and @iftas for providing the resources 🙏 )

Meine wunderbare Kollegin @Linzspiration ist #neuhier im #Fediverse und wir versuchen mit wirksamen.social eine Instanz (für ein Bildungskollektiv) neu aufzubauen. Gerade auch deshalb wären Verbindungen mit ihr und damit mit der Instanz toll - es geht uns um potenzialorientierte #Bildung #Nachhaltigkeit und eine l(i)ebenswerte Welt! (Ich weiß noch nicht, ob ich mit meinem Account umziehe oder hierbleibe. Haben #fediadmin sonst vielleicht noch Tipps wie wir mit der Instanz vernetzter werden?)

Nononono, váyanse a la verga, una cosa es que te quieran colar un scam del príncipe nigeriano y otra es que quieran lucrar de esta manera tan asquerosa y nefasta.

Me acaba de llegar noti con un tag de... Esto,me he ido a asomar y la cuenta está generando spam a niveles inhumanos por lo que casi con total seguridad se trata de un proceso automatizado

@/nagam6227w8@ali525-q.hf.space

Instancia de pleroma haciéndose pasar por un sobreviviente de Gaza pidiendo dinero.

OJO: ESTO NO TIENE NADA QUE VER CON EL PROYECTO DE GAZA VERIFIED QUE ESTÁ SUPERVISADO POR ARAL.

Esto en toda regla es un timo/trolleo muy jodido.

Hey all - I'm unsure how many other #fediadmin accounts I reach out here, but if you didn't know, here's a #feditips for admins - you can now exclude certain text substrings from account names that users create when they sign up.

SO those of you running open-door registrations and not keeping up with the spammers intruding, one way you could help all of us is disallowing words like "masto*" "mastadon", "support" and "help" and "verif*" in account names.

Fedi admins with open sign-ups,

There are scammers active at the moment, and all of the scammer accounts have signed up on servers with instant signups.

To put the scammers off signing up on your server, you might want to set your sign-ups to "approval required".

To do this on Mastodon go to Preferences > Administration > Server Settings > Registrations tab > Who can sign up > Approval required, then click save changes.

Hello there wafflers (and everyone)!

There's been a spam/scam popping off around the Fediverse, which consists of bot accounts from big instances with open registration (e.g. mastodon.social, mastodon.world) that asks you to verify your identity.

DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK!

This is a clear scam, instead report these accounts to your instance admin.

Thanks! - @jb
