If you want to hide the current deluge of Mastodon spam, either create a filter for krsw-wiki.org in the Mastodon admin interface and/or, if you’re using Mona, mute the keyword.

#fediverse #mastodon #spam

Screenshot of the Mastodon admin interface on mobile, showing the Filters section with a filter set called Spam with krsw-wiki.org listed as one of the two keywords.

Lemmy user here. I'm completely unaware of this spam situation, could someone please enlighten me?

Of course, it would be nicer if the Mastodon interface actually hid filtered notifications instead of doing whatever the fuck this is.

@[email protected] is it possible to add a filter as admin for everybody in the instance? I couldn't find how to do it, I could do it only for myself

@[email protected] Have a single-person instance so I’m sorry, I don’t know. I had assumed the filters would be instance-wide but you know what they say about assuming… ;)

@[email protected] ah ok, no worries. So I think we're going to suspend some instances for a while

It makes an ass out of you and I'm just fine? /s
