#SpamWave
RE: https://hoosier.social/@brian/117288002044677046

This is genius, just done it on this server. Should cut down the current admin from this latest stupid spamwave.
#mastoadmin - our instance is struggling with the Automated protocol deliverability probe" spam situation just like everyone else. I started experimenting with the Moderation -> Username rules page. I added bp0, bp1, bp2, etc with “Contains” as the method of […]

If any of you were also hit by this spamwave of ghost notifications on GH, a user made a script to tackle them!

That's one of the PDSs that Blacksky uses, which probably means that they're getting hit with a spamwave

another spamwave?
In my inbox this morning, and email that begins: "Dear $Firstname, I have been a fan of yours for many years".

I did wonder about all of that last night, props to the people who tend the pipes and pulleys of this place, Humanity's Last Stand!

Fuck AI!

Special thanks to @noahimesaka1873 @austin @gunchleoc and all the IFTAS Connect community members that helped gather info […]

It's extra important when, eg, the site is being hit by a spamwave. Nobody likes to see followspam or replyspam or even likespam in their notifications. Actually, people get really upset about it.

@Codeberg hey no biggie but is the spamwave causing the increase in downtime lately? Been patient but it's getting to be pretty often

Looks like another spamwave is hitting the #fediverse

I've decided to suspend the following Misskey instances from both buddyverse.one and this instance due to a lack of moderation. I've reported multiple posts with no response:

1. tickler.cc
2. usasa.ky

The spamwave is going to take hours to sort through :blobsob:

I wish we had moderation tools that worked

When I found out about this I felt bad for older legitimate users on those domains.

Iirc there was something like standardized moderation policies, would've been more elegant to set a policy to ban only accounts from a cutoff slightly before the start of the spamwave

looks like a new spamwave from whatever "cognitivesystems" is trying to be.

I think they might be deliberately flooding the fediverse with AI marketing stuff because they know there are a lot of people against it here and they just want to upset people, trying to make people leave fedi. I'm […]

@dragonarchitect I've barely seen anything about it. I'm hoping that means that the security measures a lot of servers put in place last go around are still working. :blobfoxthinkgoogly:​ I also never got around to unblocking all of the servers from the last spamwave so that might have […]

I don't want #spam in #fediverse.

I tried this and it worked.
