Mastodon has a serious spam problem which challenges my use of this platform.
Every day a person is creating new spam accounts to pollute the replies to my posts with Kremlin propaganda. Then when I block these accounts, the person creates new accounts and continues.
It is 13:00 and I have taken down 4 accounts already, and now more will be created.
@Gargron @renchap it is a pattern:
1. Random account created
2. Hits follow on my account
3. Replies with propaganda
4. Is blocked.
5. GOTO 1
thank you. I have now set it to "filter".
I really wish, Mastodon took advantage of their pattern of following the same political accounts, because I do not think this is normal behavior.
I reckon, normal accounts discover accounts to follow organically. But this spammer creates his account, then immediately hits follow on my account and a few others.
While that is a short-term solution, the rest of us will still see these comments and they have the potential to derail conversation or scare people off.
I hope it's possible to implement some sort of check on account behavior, maybe auto-flagging them for admins. If they display behaviour which isn't human-like and are not marked as a bot account, perhaps.
Just brainstorming here, but it might be worth looking into as mastodon continues to grow.
Easy to automate.

I love this. People often complain about MS Office compatibility and no-one knows OnlyOffice which is great for that.
It has a similar interface, has better support for MS Office documents and supports cloud collaboration (yes I know about Collabora but that is in browser only). Unless you're doing something really complex it will do you just fine. I even install it on Windows for people that don't want to pay the subscription.

"Canada could become a tech export powerhouse, while making everything cheaper for Canadian tech users, while making everything more profitable for anyone who sells media or software in an online store.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, speaking on Sunday's "Meet the Press," argued the cash crunch would end if Congress repealed the Social Security tax cap:
U.S. taxpayers only pay Social Security taxes on the first $176,100 of their annual wages.
He said that means the ultrawealthy like Musk pay the same amount into the program "as a truck driver."

this is a great idea and I love your draft at wording for what the group stands for. Count me in!
Advocacy for self-employed people or hobbyists can sometimes be easier to establish because people yearn for the support more than those in more stable employment. Artists might have a template. In Ireland we have a 'representative group for artists', Visual Artists Ireland, who have political voice and do an amazing job: visualartists.ie
We also have a union called Praxis.
