Michael<p>This can’t seem to find a way to unsubscribe from these as an end user. </p><p>Am I blind, or has that been overlooked?</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.thms.uk/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a></p>
Michael<p>This doesn’t really affect me as I’m on a single user instance, but I know lots of admins have been asking for it for a while:</p><p>There’s finally a way to email announcements to users of your instance: (merged and available on nightly, no idea when it’ll be merged to a release)</p><p><a href="https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/33928" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p</span><span class="invisible">ull/33928</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mstdn.thms.uk/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a></p>

I'm sad to see him go, but so grateful for his time and dedication (and those lightning-fast report responses).</p><p>Honestly, the only reason the fediverse is a half-decent place is mods like him.

Hi I'm Sean<p>🌧️ :warren_liberty: 🌧️ </p><p>We had this image commissioned a while ago with the idea that the site would have some corny, early 2000s CSS weather effects that matched the local <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/nyc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nyc</span></a> weather. Swapping out the banner (at <a href="https://masto.nyc/about" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">masto.nyc/about</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>) for this "rainy day" variant would have been part of that.</p><p>Then, much later, I realized, like, 95% of masto.nyc users use an app and would never see it ;____;</p><p>maybe one day I'll go through with it if I need a rainy day activity ☔ </p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a></p>

Francis 🏴‍☠️ Gulotta<p>My mastodon instance doesn’t have elastic search. I very much would like to search posts that I have replied to. If I export my archive, I get the replies, but not the content. I assume my instance probably has a cache of what I’m looking for.</p><p>Is writing a crawler that hits my own instance to load the status that I replied to for every reply in my archive a good idea? I would work with my admin and keep the rate limit low as not to bring it down.</p><p>Is there a better way?<br><a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/mastohelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastohelp</span></a></p>

Martin Haſeneyer<p>Dear fellow <a href="https://franken.social/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a>​s, I really like to have registrations from certain e-mail providers (GMail, Outlook) after approval only, which reduces spam attempts massively. Is it also possible to have certain account names blocked or just allowed after approval?</p><p>(Some spam/SEO companies seem to have a hidden network of trash mail domains to get around the GMail approval, but they still register accounts with the same word/pattern included over and over.)</p>

Andrew Williams<p>It seems adding an extra index has got the first step of the job proceeding. The index comes out at about 10% the size of the statuses table so not too bad. <a href="https://social.doofnet.uk/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a></p>
Andrew Williams<p>I'm getting extremely frustrated with Mastodon, i've never done any real maintenance on statuses and the DB has about 29mil records with a disk size of ~20GB. I'm attempting to use 'tootctl status remove' but the queries keep timing out, dying or some variety of issues.</p><p>I spent some time trying to reverse engineer the command into some sort of sense, as its built for large instances rather than two or three user instances. The process is built up around generating a list of status IDs to delete, rather than a list of statuses to keep (which would be quicker for my instance).</p><p>Any suggestions would be welcome.</p><p><a href="https://social.doofnet.uk/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoadmin</span></a></p>
