@serindelaunay huh, that's strange. it's probably an instance issue since i'm running a forked codebase, i bet i messed something up. i'll take a look, sorry about that!

Greetings! I'm going to take the server down in a little while to run some updates

@Transflux dunno! it's not my bot

hello to everyone signing up here to check out @SecretlyPublicDomain! if you like bots and/or art things, please say hello to the other bots here too

Also, just a heads up that the servers are getting hammered lately, and there is a backlog of signup requests. I'm working on both, sorry!

Hi folks, blocking freefedifollowers.ga because it's the spammiest spammer that ever did spam

@jonbro it probably depends on the specifics? I like the idea though

@alexl mmhmm, go on

@alexl second statement first: yes I do have an account on gab. I am exceedingly aware of how it operates. First statement second: logically speaking, if gab is like the others then it has no need to exist but you already knew that. Anyway, the decision is mine alone, was made as a fully informed human, and is not negotiable. Good day

@alexl I made an informed decision, sorry

So I've been processing account sign-ups and trying to be quick about it, and one thing I occasionally do is reject signups that don't fill out the "why do you want to join?" field. I'm suddenly realizing that this means I've been rejecting some legit signups that just happen to leave this field blank. So if you have a reason in mind, please out it there, and if you don't, it's okay to say that too! If it's blank, I have no idea at all what your intention might be. Thanks!

@ojahnn bot on!

Hello from v2.9.4

@artlogic sorry! i try to be quick about it but i fell behind today. should be approved now

@efi so sorry for the delay, i've taken care of the backlog now

PSA: I'm planning on running some updates to botsin.space tomorrow morning (ie ~24 hours from now)

@messageofday i could and i might but it's basically an unwinnable arms race

@commandlinekid there was an RT account here but we shut it down due to multiple complaints and for being uncurated news. I can't imagine being ok with a JBS account here

@commandlinekid probably depends on the specifics

Hi friends, I'm getting a weird error here, no idea if other people are getting it, and I'm travelling so debugging it is a little tricky! pls let me know if you are experiencing weird issues
