>Keeping open regs on the Mastodon instance you leave neglected for weeks or even months at a time. I guess mastards are fine with running the risk of getting a house call from the Feds.
@Hoss@theorytoe Fun fact, there's no captcha on Mastodon's registration page. Apparently having it is not inclusive for those 0.01% of people that are blind.
Houses should be built without locks to accommodate those who lack the dexterity in their hands to turn a key. This is the most reasonable solution to this very important problem.
@Hoss@theorytoe imagine if some 13 year old signed up on some random abandoned mastodon instance and used it to post a threat like Alex "not a fed" Linder did?
You could at least make it a toggle in the admin settings. God forbid people be given the option of choice, if you allow that they might go and do things that Emperor Gargron dislikes.
@i@theorytoe@Pawlicker@Hoss Looks like the captcha is shown only after sending out the email. You could probably rape someone's mailbox by just sending out registration request to every single instance on the network. Screenshot_20240217_230000.png
>Make a retarded decision with obvious consequences. >Obvious outcome happens. >Retarded decision is only walked back once the consequences of it become so unbearable that even the decision makers can no longer ignore it. Damn it's like this story has repeated itself a gorillion times whenever people with a particularly cancerous flavor of ideology are put in charge of literally anything.
@i@theorytoe@Pawlicker@Hoss Hear me out, what if they could, say, pipe all incoming activites through a bunch of detachable self-contained modules that could discard or mangle them? People could write these modules to tailor their federation needs. I think it would be neat.
