✨Soff✨ Mawr :dragnwitch:What tools do you use to manually validate prospective users?
✨Soff✨ Mawr :dragnwitch:<p>Spammers have been programmatically creating accounts on Mastodon instances for years. Sometimes they post once and never again, sometimes they post on a schedule.

Mark<p>The /api/v2/instance says translation is actually enabled... But it just doesn't pop up in the web interface for like German or Czech posts 🤔 <a href="https://infrastruct.social/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a></p>
Mark<p>Hmm. I added the translation option to my Mastodon instance (with DeepL) but the "Translate" button does not appear in the Mastodon Web UI. Also tried wrapping the API key in single-quotes and added DEEPL_PLAN=free.

Brook @ PMG<p>If you're an admin using custom css to highlight media without alt text, Mastodon v4.4 has changed from using <code>title</code> to using <code>aria-label</code> for media descriptions (images still use <code>alt</code>), so I had to adjust mine.</p><p>This is what I'm using now:</p><pre><code>.media-gallery__item-thumbnail img:not([alt]), <br>.media-gallery__item-thumbnail img[alt|=""], <br>.audio-player__canvas:not([aria-label]), <br>.audio-player__canvas[aria-label|=""], <br>.video-player video:not([aria-label]), <br>.video-player video[aria-label|=""], <br>.media-gallery__gifv video:not([aria-label]), <br>.media-gallery__gifv video[aria-label|=""] {<br> border: medium dashed rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.75);<br> box-sizing: border-box;<br>}<br></code></pre><p><a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a></p>

The fact that WordPress alone has no mechanism to allow a domain to exit the fediverse is reason enough. Sometimes servers get bricked and there is no way to go back and self-destruct. </p><p>Domains could be validated with a text record in the DNS by the owner of the domain name. If text record ActivityPubKill is true, then it should be trusted as so and defederated. </p><p>I'm not sure how this could be done, I don't know the ins and out. Maybe software packages could poll the DNS of failing federated servers and look for a universal or software specific kill tag or a file could be placed somewhere on a server that it looks for when a server fails, esp after 7 days. </p><p>Either way, a dns entry or a file on a physical server can be a trusted source as it takes elevated permission by someone in charge of a domain to usually do such a thing. <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/MastoDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoDev</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a></p>
