For anyone who has snac deployed with httpd on OpenBSD (especially on a resource-restricted system) and is running into lag, errors, or service crashes, I highly recommend using nginx instead of httpd. Nginx--in addition to simply being faster in general--provides easy access to media caching (see @stefano@bsd.cafe's excellent article) and robust rate-limiting/traffic throttling controls.
Switching and properly tuning my nginx config seems to be (mostly) shielding my little VPS from being overwhelmed when someone with thousands of followers boosts one of my posts.

Dear Fediverse Administrators,
Please consider relocating your website to a web hosting provider based out of the United States of America.
Historically, fascist governments do not ignore the little guy -- That's you, and your users.

I maaaay be writing a piece on Mastodon + Fediverse for the radical free-speech zine Slingshot Collective?

...if I can find the time.

❓ My question for YOU:
What are the specific weaknesses / shortcomings of Mastodon's approach to moderation, specifically as it relates to shitty speech directed at fem, trans, black, and other marginalized communities.
⭐ I'm not explicitly asking for additional labor from e.g. #blackMastodon (though it's welcome if you care to share)
⭐ I'm seeking previously-posted perspectives from individuals from marginalized communities who have been negatively impacted by the way that moderation is structured in #ActivityPub
Part of my rough current understanding of (one of) the issues:
If person A posts post 1, and person B comments [a shitty] reply 2, reply 2 remains visible and attached to post 1, unless there are instance-level blocking actions taken. Do I have that right?
Thanks all!
👋

@janantos@mstdn.social Hetzner is NOT friendly toward the LGBTQ community.
Many people here on the Fediverse learned that when a bunch of Fedi sites which has drawings or photos of women kissing women, or men kissing men, were taken offline.
I try to recommend providers who are open to generally any content, provided it is legal, of course. I am not going to recommend people looking to escape possible censorship or safety concerns, only to further feel unsafe and possibly censored.
