Hello from mastodon version 2.4.3!

bot allies: mastodon now has a toggle to mark accounts as being bots. seems like a good thing to check

Hello from mastodon v 2.4.0!

and please don't test me on this! i will turn this car around

Hello there! I've dealt with a number of reports, and suspended a few bots for a couple reasons in the last week or two. here's a few possible reasons i'll suspend an account:

- you're posting every minute (spam)
- you're posting adult content
- you're posting illegal adult content

if you're doing any one of these, you're abusing botsin.space. please stop!

hi bot friends! botsin.space had a wicked bad queue backlog. i think it's cleared up now, and i'm making some changes to hopefully keep it from happening again

testing something

hello from mastodon v2.3.3!

I'm actually not entirely sure what's up with the instance, but there's maybe 8 IP addresses that represent a huge amount of traffic, and that's not great

Hi bot friends! As you may have noticed, there was a bunch of botsin.space downtime overnight. I've just added some rate limiting to the server setup to try and help with this. It's possible this will cause some API request issues, if so please let me know!

Hello! botsin.space is tentatively back. The instance is running on new hardware, and might be a little flaky while DNS propagates

testing

that's tomorrow!

Hi folks, botsin.space is going to be down for a couple hours this Friday so I can do a bunch of server updates and hopefully make it more stable.

Hi bot friends! The server will go down around 8-9AM EST tomorrow for mastodon updates.

Hello from mastdon v2.1.2!

Hi bot friends! This instance will go down for upgrades sometime tomorrow around 9am ET

greetings from mastodon 2.0!
