from Mastodon.host
General, fast, stable and open instance.
Federate with everyone.
One of the most complete Federated timeline thanks to @federationbot
lightly moderated in general, common sense applied. That said, read the rules below :)
What sets mastodon.host appart ?
As a general instance, we are not centered on a specific theme, or a specific language. Everyone is welcome as long as they follow the few rules we have.
We always run the latest stable version of mastodon, providing you a stock experience, with the following modifications:
- 1024 character limit ( not 500 ).
- 512 character limits for the account's bio ( not 160 ).
- full column width ( not fixed size ).
- more search results ( 20 instead of 5 per type of search ).
- text search of statuses ( not restricted to searching tags and users ).
- boosts and replies are shown in the timelines ( more complete view for everyone ).
- Your mastodon.host account is also a XMPP account ( Federated Instant Messaging, take a look online to find a client and use your mastodon.host username and password to configure it ). Woohoo! two services in one!
We also have a very good view of the federation ( our federated timeline gives you a more broad view of the Mastodon network than a 'normal' instance, there's a lot to read in a lot of languages ).
Although we are a medium+ sized instance, we'd like to keep the feeling that you are at home and safe here.
Never hesitate to contact the admin team if you have any questions !
Please read the FAQ below or at https://mastodon.host/about/more to get started.
What are the instance's rules ?
No illegal stuff, harassment, discrimination, xenophobia, threats or any behavior that is not appropriate to a friend will be tolerated to our users. This is a safe place for everyone, respect your fellow users or silence/block if you don't want to see someone. We will step up on our users report but will ban from our instance only problematic situations or when our users can't do it themselves/needs us to protect them. We suggest that you first block the persons you don't want to see. If that situation degenerates, contact us and we'll deal with it. Moderation is a last resort action, as you, the user have the power to block/silence anyone or any instance you want.
For content posted here now:
Erotic/Porn/Gore/Etc.. talks/pictures/videos.. shall be behind a CW. If you would not open that picture/video in front of your boss/spouse/kids => CW ( Content Warning ).
Anything that is illegal in Europe/USA shall not be posted on this server, Lolicons, for example, are illegal.
Globally common sense applied,
don't do illegal stuff, don't discriminate, don't be a racist, etc...
Notify to an administrator or report if you have a doubt. Do not engage, if you don't want to see someone's contributions, you can block/silence that person and report to us, we'll deal with it.We try to post in English so everyone understands, but that rule is not enforced at all ;)
Most importantly have fun and be nice to each other!
Regarding bots:
Bots are allowed as long as their main posts are done 'unlisted' ( not displayed on the timelines ). You are allowed to advertise your bot on the timelines a couple times a week. Any bot not respecting those rules will be silenced by default. We just want to prevent having a bot monopolizing the timeline. Thanks for your understanding.
What is this instance privacy policy ?
We will never share your data with anyone, except if a valid legal request is received (Hopefully it will not happen).
