I want to mention my intent to collaborate with trusted community providers like @iftas@mastodon.iftas.org to share data and provide the community with multiple options!
We all can agree that spam sucks, so let's work together the best we can and fix this 💪
@dansup@mastodon.social That sounds pretty cool. I've often wondered whether I could pipe mastodon posts into rspamd to classify them, leveraging existing email filters. It seems like it'd be the same basic idea.
@dansup@mastodon.social I don't know if this is relevant, but as one of the moderators on IOCX I see an immense amount of SEO spam signups. We ban them on sight, and thus very very few such posts get onto the local timeline. I'm certain the exact same account is created on multiple Mastodon-servers, so we should really have a sort of "two instances have banned this very same account so block it"-functionality.
