Until I implement a better system to screen out spammers, I will be closing registrations on Fedia.io. That’s not what I want - I’d like for it to be available for legitimate accounts, but the spam is off the hook....
Being a slow peep, & also not previously paying any attention to #kbin / #mbin til last week, i then "discovered" Fedia.io [having no idea at all it was another of your babies]. As i read thru the various admin info for users pages, i thought "hey, this all seems quite familiar, has someone copied Jerry's words from `infosec.exchange'?" Then, soon after, i realised my ignorance. I've not yet tried to sign up coz i still dunno if i "need" it, alongside / instead of my existing #Friendica & Masto accounts, but clearly based on your post here, if i do later decide to try it, i'll need to remember this new status.
@jerry Fair enough. Any "decision" i end up making on this is a low-priority thing, but from my initial looking at your instance the other night, i suspect i'm prolly leaning towards not bothering... not as any slight against your fine work, but simply coz i'm not sure that i like the UI & its tools [compared to Friendica & even Masto]. Also, given that as a lot of my posts, & fav interlocutors' posts, regard #AusPol, my initial keyword search for that #hashtag there were rather underwhelming.
Closing registrations in Fedia.io due to spammers (fedia.io)
