Update to sh.itjust.works announcement regarding the recent spam wave (self.main)

This is an update to a previous post: https://sh.itjust.works/post/26389783

The spam wave has slowed down significantly, so we have unblocked almost all of the Misskey and Mastodon instances that were being used to relay the spam posts. Six instances are going to stay on our block list for now:

kitsui.life
lawsocial.org
m.corduba.tech
puls.social
seda.social
startrekshitposting.com

It is interesting to note that these six instances are also considered abandoned by IFTAS, and have been added to the IFTAS DNI list.

Since we're adjusting our instance blocks, we have taken this opportunity to update the sh.itjust.works Censures list in Fediseer to match our current block list.

That is all. Have a good day, everyone!

Edit: transforthe.win is also now on our block list. Spam posts are still coming from that instance.

Wow, I hadn't even noticed: Good job!

The fact that I never see these until you update us that it's been mitigated is a testament to this instance and its maintainers.

Thank you.
