Short description
ieji.de is a generalistic mastodon instance, with the goal of being the fastest mastodon instance in Europe and with a focus on user privacy, like being usable via the tor network.
Long description
Rules of ieji.de
Targeted misgendering, deadnaming, or promotion of so-called "conversion therapy" is prohibited.
Harassing people in any way, racism, sexism or transphobia is strictly forbidden.
Harassment includes targeted campaigns against specific people.
Being a "minor attracted person" / pedophile spreading pictures of minors will get you erased and reported to authorities.
Accounts mainly used for spam, porn, advertisements or backlinking are immediatly deleted.
Do not break german law (no nazis or extremists allowed).
Do not post erotic content without content warning.
Do not spread explicit pictures or copyrighted material.

Short description(TL;DR of the core values)
This instance is strongly focused on user privacy, we save no IP(changing your IP with 0.0.0.0 before it gets sent to Mastodon), are accessible via tor and yggdrasil and use no cloudflare.
We use an hilarious amount of serverpower to provide the best possible experience, please let us know of any speed shortcomings.
Free speech is a precious good, but it has its limits.
We ban bigots, racists, terfs and users that break german or international laws, objections are denied in these cases.

Core values of ieji.de

Safety
Our strongest core value is to be a safe place for everyone, if we notice any kind of harassment coming from or going towards our instances,
the offending accounts are suspended without parole.

Security
We use the latest security technology to prevent sensitive data from being accessed from the outside with systems like CrowdSec and implementing the latest TLS standards. This includes not using Cloudflare at all as this would jeopardize your privacy as a huge MITM attack vector.
A sophisticated anti-ddos filter in addition to the well known Arbor Networks filter nullify most attacks.
Daily full backups of the database and a daily incremental backup of media files are being made towards a different datacenter within Frankfurt.

Performance
Another main goal is showcasing how fast mastodon can be by deploying it on the best highest threaded machine money can buy in a one of a kind european datacenter.

Anonymity
The nginx webserver does not create any logs, Mastodon is being given a false IP (0.0.0.0) and we have a tor hidden service address with https enabled and a valid certificate from harica (which recently expired, oops). Also accessible via Yggdrasil Network. These require acceptance of the tor onion cert. Also an early supporter of WirSpeichernNicht (german for WeDontStore), a movement against the data retention law that was planned earlier in Germany, pledging not to make logs.

Features
Whatever comes up as features at Mastodon, we implement it, we want you to have the best Mastodon experience there is, this includes:
Full Text Search via ElasticSearch, Translation Service via LibreTranslate and a relay service via AodeRelay, besides some relays, crowdsec and netdata, both very heavy focused on data privacy, no external services are being used.

Longevity
The service is online since may 8th, 2017 and is here to stay, also thanks to the continuous support from our community.

Ecofriendly
This instance is hosted at Hetzner which houses the servers in the modern Falkenstein datacenter which only uses green energy.



Threads.net is blocked via domain block and iptables drop as the company has a horrendous past and does not at all align with our idea of privacy and safety.
Bridgy is blocked, as we do not want to rely on such services and rather promote using compatible standards.
