Yesterday I got an alert that my disk space on my Mastodon instance server was running out.
All the media seemed to suddenly be refreshed and at a very fast rate.
It took a while to figure out it was the Meta AI scraper hitting the instance quite a lot.
I finally managed to block it in Caddy abs and robots.txt together with some other AI scraper.

Auto-translation on #Mastodon: a love-hate relationship.

success! Upgraded #footiMac to Debian 13/Trixie and brought Mastodon along for the ride.
Had a few hiccups...
1) I upgraded elasticsearch and ended up having to clear out its cache files as it didn't want to 'upgrade' them itself.
2) postgresql 15 and 16 are still running in the background and needed new timezones in their configs.
3) Charlock_holmes ruby gem was unhappy (as noted in recent Mastodon release notes) and needed: bundle install --force to actually get it to install again.
4) libvibs is not happy either, so I turned it off in the config file. This seems to be an ongoing issue.
Once those things were found and fixed, it all came back up.
Phew! Wonder what else broke lol

In the past few weeks there has been a bot farm hammering small Mastodon instances with requests for what looks like emoji-related assets and the hashtag API.
More specifically, it appears this bot farm has now come for my Mastodon instance, because the number of requests has doubled in the last 24 hours, with a lot of the requests being API requests for a single JSON file.
Even more specifically, looking at data provided by my CDN provider, a lot of the bots appear to be using IP addresses associated with Tencent Singapore.

A message especially for my Canadian male followers out there today, but it applies to all.
If you see a story from a woman calling out the behaviour of a man, believe them. Yes, believe them over the 'bro’, especially when there are multiple corroborating stories.
Don’t feign impartiality.
Don't ignore.
Just believe them, it's not that hard.
It's long past time we do this as the default.
It will make us all better in the long run.
That is all.

The amount of disinformation, deep fakes, and other misdirection I hear about from friends and relatives that they get from traditional social media is insane.
They have to tell me about it because I am almost always completely unaware, even though I am “on the Internet” just as much if not more than them.
This is a deep advantage of using Mastodon/the Fediverse right now. And it is not because fake stuff doesn’t exist here.
It is just not automatically sent to me by every owner, bot, and user. And if it is, it is generally swatted down hard.

I'm sympathetic to folks who want better discovery tool on fediverse but I'll never truly understand. I love being in the wild west and hunting for content and collecting follows and content sources. Anything that hands me content I quickly loose interest it.
Tiktok never held my interest even trying to get the algo to give me things I want. It never worked and I gave it several week of trying.
