This is my current attempt at preparing to counter the spam waves that will be appearing as the fediverse becomes more and more popular.
It involves the creation of whitelists based on a chain of trust between instances with easy ways to add and remove into it with few overheads.
Let me know what you think and if you’re interested, please do register your instance at https://overctrl.dbzer0.com.
I’ve only recently setup my own lemmy instance, to test new stuff, fix a few things, whatever. Something like this would prevent me from federating with the content I want to see, and I’d have to go try and be buddies with a trusted instance admin to get endorsed?
I think this may be something we want to discuss more as a community, and see what better solutions might be out there
