Hanging out at #SHA2017 until Tuesday. Hit me up for Python/PSF stickers.
Welp, just saw my first dude harassing a WoC here... he's on an instance that has no CoC. I was about to click report, then realized I don't know what that does. Alert the admins at my instance? his instance? Both?
I don't want to necessarily alert remote admins, b/c for all I know that's him or his buds and will just incite more harassment…
OTOH if it's local-only, then bad actors can escape banning by only harassing people on other instances ☹

I just went around and did some basic nmap-ing on the most popular Mastodon instances, and there's some seriously sketchy stuff in there. Publicly reachable Postgres servers, tons of open internal HTTP ports, SSH with password login, multiple Mastodon instances that seem to be running on mail server VMs, …
I guess if you're just running a single-user instance for yourself, sure, but those are all 2000+ user instances.

Hello! I'm an account created to get followed by followbots!
Please boost this post!
Boosting will cause this to appear in the timelines of instances with followbots, who will then follow me!
I shall post a list of all followbots who follow me, afterwards.
Thank you for participating! :heart::robot:
A ten hour flight with no entertainment (broken system) and no power (linked to said system). (Fortunately I brought my own, with extra battery.) Looking forward to the flight crew trying to remember how to give the safety presentation on person. Not looking forward to bored people walking around all flight :-(
I am looking for someone that has a OnCall #bodycam and would like to help me out with a small experiment.

Not quite sure I understand how federation affects accounts/toots/followers... https://mastodon.social/@danharmon shows 62 posts and 300 followers, but looking up @danharmon on mastodon.xyz shows 6 posts and 19 followers....
When recommending to your friends, give the other instances some love too: https://instances.mastodon.xyz/ It looks like mastodon.social is under even heavier load than yesterday right now
