Information Hub:
I wanted to share a glimpse into the invisible battle we're fighting:
We're an open instance built to give genuine people a direct gateway to the Fediverse. Sign up, confirm your email, boom, done.
But bots, bad actors, and spammers try to get in, too. Last month's numbers:
Total signups: 1,025
Blocked by email domain: 675
Blocked after signup: 141
Genuine people (or undetected): 209
It surprised me that genuine people make up only about 20% of the total.

@waffles@masto.yttrx.com we’re on joinmastodon, and luckily a lot of real people still find us. :)
It was a lot better before the flagship instance started hoovering up the entire inflow, but they’re working on that.
