Instances

This search engine for Mastodon instances is based on a database that gets updated by our crawler every night (CET).

Instances are considered new for 30 days after they are discovered.

When an instance has not responded to our daily checks for more than 30 days it is no longer considered in statistics and searches and it gets checked only on the first of the month, rather than daily, until it possibly responds again, or until its last succesful check is one year old; in this latter case, from that moment it gets checked only on the first day of each year.

“Random ordering” of results varies daily.

Default search criteria reflect our fondness for a decentralized and egalitarian Fediverse and our attempt to exclude instances accepting fascist, racist, sexist, ableist, sovereignist, pro-nuclear and pedopornographic contents by marking them as noxious.

To report any issue, technical or non-technical, or to suggest instances to exclude according to the above criteria, please contact us at our e-mail address, masthelp[at]insicuri.net.

We currently count 9,858 Mastodon instances, with 9,874,452 users (819,260 active during last month) and 1,051,458,722 published statuses. [Show Threads moderation statistics]

Threads moderation statistics

    A community for fashion and luxury
    Long description
    FashionSocial.host is an open, inclusive Mastodon instance for the fashion and luxury community. Targeted to fashion pros and aficionados alike, this group is devoted to exploring, discussing, and supporting the art and business of fashion in its many forms and guises.

    TERMS AND CONDITIONS

    Rights Regarding Content on FashionSocial.host User-submitted content, including profile information, avatars, uploaded media, posted content, replies and any other information submitted to FashionSocial.host remain the property of the user who submits it (provided they owned it to begin with). FashionSocial.host members and staff do not monetize or sell material posted here. As much as is legally possible given the nature of this service, it is the policy of FashionSocial.host that users retain complete creative and legal control of their own submitted material.

    Bots and Cross-Posters FashionSocial.host does not allow bots. We recommend that you put your bot on another instance.

    Repeaters of RSS feeds or cross-posters from Twitter or other services are allowed, but discouraged. If you use them, we prefer that you post to Fashion Social with the privacy setting set as Unlisted, so that your posts do not appear on the local timeline.

    Longevity Pledge FashionSocial.host is committed to providing long-term service to the fashion and luxury community, and has no plans to shut down.

    In the case that the current site owner is unable to continue to maintain FashionSocial.host, they will make a good-faith effort to recruit a volunteer to provide services to the users of FashionSocial.host on the same terms as they are currently offered (i.e. FashionSocial.host will never be sold to a large media company for them to monetize its content.)

    In the case that no such volunteer can be found, users of FashionSocial.host will be given an advance warning at least one year before the site is closed.

    In Case of Downtime or Data Loss While we strive to provide continuous service and avoid errors and data loss, FashionSocial.host provides no guarantees regarding uptime and cannot be held responsible in the case that account data is lost or corrupted. It is recommended that you export your own data archive periodically. Backing up your account is your own responsibility. Users whose accounts are suspended for breaking our Terms and Conditions will not be given an opportunity to download a copy of their archive.
    Instance rules
    1. Tolerance - Hate speech, abusive language, or racist, sexist, or otherwise discriminatory rhetoric will not be tolerated.
    2. Openness - This server is focused on open, inclusive dialogue and community for fashion, luxury, and retail.
    3. Authenticity - Be yourself and try not to be marketing or sales centric.

    About AkademieNL

    This is a voluntary run, not-for-profit server that is meant for anyone working in, affiliated with, or with a general interest in Dutch academia (#AkademieNL). We welcome anyone working at, or that has worked at one of the Dutch universities, knowledge or research institutions, people working on science policies and funding, science journalists, and anyone with a general interest in Dutch academia.
    We offer an inclusive safe haven where academics and likeminded individuals can converse in a constructive manner, while also offering space for digital banter (e.g. memes) and leisure (e.g. pics of cats or dogs, holidays, etc.).

    Code of Conduct

    First and foremost: follow the above mentioned Server Rules at all times.
    Roughly speaking, toots can be divided in to two categories: scientific and non-scientific. Both are subject to the Server Rules, but for scientific toots it is also expected that they uphold scientific standards and do not harm scientific integrity in any way. As such, moderation on scientific toots has a more strict policy.
    Being an user on AkademieNL is a privilege, not a right. Moderators and administrators can revoke this privilege if the Server Rules or Code of Conduct are violated.

    Privacy & security

    All data for the AkademieNL-server are located in France. It uses a TSL (Transport Layer Security) for encryption and by doing so ensuring that the data is safe. Backups are made daily.
    For some actions, such as when someone signs up, a notification mail needs to be send to the moderator. This mail is handled securely through a SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) and is directed towards AkademieNL@pm.me. This e-mail is provided by Protonmail where everything is stored fully encrypted as well.
    We advise you to further protect your account by enabling 2FA (2-factor authentication). Content is stored for a maximum of one year to keep costs manageable, so if you want to keep posts, please backup accordingly!

    Migrating to AkademieNL

    If you don't have a Mastodon account yet, you can simply make one here and start enjoying the #AkademieNL fediverse. If you already have an account, you will need to migrate it.

    Step one

    Create a new account through the AkademieNL hompepage.

    Step two

    Once your new account has been approved, click preferences -> account -> create an account alias (under moving from a different account). Once there fill in your old account. Your old account will be linked as an alias to the new account.

    Step three

    Once your new account has the old account as an alias, go to your old account and once again click preferences -> account, but now click configure it here (under move to a different account). Once there fill in the handle of your new AkademieNL-account and the password to your old account. Once you click move followers, your old account will be migrated to the new one. This process might take a while, depending on the speed of the old server.
