@pk84@tooter.social nice sound! I like it!
@EnigmaRotor@bsd.cafe I've been delaying this for months. Now, it's time to send it, before it will be too late.
I think I'll disclose the contents of this e-mail, but only when everything well be over or sorted out.
Happy start to the week, friends of the #BSDCafe and the whole #Fediverse.
May the sunrise this morning bring a bit of light and warmth to all of you, making your week brighter and more positive.

@soaproot@sfba.social it's happened a couple of times, in the last days. My boosts mean "hey, look here" but people, sometimes, think they're some sorts of endorsements.
So I preferred to point it out - just to be sure of not being misunderstood 🙂
@zirias@snac.bsd.cafe @modev@snac.bsd.cafe Entire instances can be blocked using the command line, but they're using many (abandoned? loosely moderated?) instances.
We can also set the "drop posts from accounts created less than X seconds ago". We could set a 86400 seconds - but we could lose new users, posting their introductions.
For now, I've blocked those instances you pointed out
@EnigmaRotor@bsd.cafe Quoted boosts are coming on Mastodon, too: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/10/trunk-tidbits-september-2024/
Still, I don't know how they'll be considered by many as many Twitter users did a lot of mess with them, using them to harass people.
I totally agree with your point of view: I don't want to judge people by a post/boost. Still, I understand why people are so "on guard" as the Fediverse is full of bad people/trolls, too.
Luckily, the world is full of good people. But, sometimes, it's quite difficult to find them as they're much, much more silent than the bad ones.
@winterschon@bsd.cafe I decided to point it out on my profile, just to avoid problems/misunderstandings.
@kasperd Quote posts are coming to Mastodon (https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/10/trunk-tidbits-september-2024/). Let's see if people will accept it. For now, many are against them as on Twitter they've (also) been used in a very bad way.
@ivan@tomica.social I agree.
@admin@hear-me.social I'm glad to know it'll be useful. I've performed some tests on my test instance - I'll be upgrading the BSD Cafe in the coming weeks.
@andypiper@macaw.social great article, thank you for sharing it!
@ben@m.benui.ca It depends - maybe Matrix, or Mattermost, or anything open source and that you can self host
@matuzalem@bsd.cafe thank you!
