@snap_as @apanthropist@mastodon.social both
you know that denial-of-service where you sprinkle the tiniest amount of black powder on the outside of someone's carry on?
the bitcoin equivalent would be to find someone's exchange deposit address and send ransomware proceeds there.
@kayden @eris my mastodon instance only looks at l3 ip (which is all the same due to docker userspace proxy) and rate limits everything, so my fedi experience is already super broken without patching masto (no knob to disable per-IP rate limiting otherwise).
at this point i'm just sort of used to masto being busted. i'll port whatever is required from my db to my new host.
@eris this is an interesting question, i would immediately assume "it's a trap" as many nations have already effectively outlawed large cash transactions.
@eris thanks for the info though; just one more rock on the road of not using twitter. i wish there were non-nerd fedi devs that spend time on earth
@eris i will keep the domain/id unchanged. i am the admin of this server so whatever IDs are in this database can be moved as-is to the new host.
the fact that fedi software fucking blows and expects me to change my brand name simply because it sucks at internal identifiers is a bug, it's not my problem.
@socjuswiz i think i may have muted all of poa.st (on my single user instance; i wouldn't mute third parties for other people)
come to think of it i don't think i ever had a single positive interaction from that domain
