About This Search Engine

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 (if you already have an account on the Fediverse and want to receive one daily post with a summary of the new Mastodon instances that our crawler discovers daily, you can follow @nmiab@kolektiva.social; alternatively, you can also view them here).

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, of any kind, involving mastodon.help, or to suggest instances to exclude according to the above criteria, please contact us at our e-mail address, arbuk+masthelp[at]disroot.org.

Important Notes for Instance Administrators

If you don’t want your instance to show up here, please e-mail us at arbuk+masthelp[at]disroot.org.

If your instance is behind a web firewall such as Anubis or Cloudflare, and you want it to be listed here, you must configure the firewall to allow our bot, which makes no more than a dozen HTTP requests per day, to connect to your instance, by whitelisting it by User-Agent and/or IP address. Our bot’s User-Agent is mastodon.help; the IP address from which it makes requests is the same as this site’s, 65.108.133.80.

Short description
All people are welcome, except those who don't accept other people. This is a sex positive and LGBTQ+ friendly mastodon instance with rules for adult content and safe place for all felines out there.
Long description
This is a sex positive and kink friendly server but not explicitly that. All content is allowed as long as rules are respected. All genders, sexual orientations and relationship types are welcome and safe here and any contact is allowed as long as there is consent. It is managed by a pair of felines living on an island and there is no organization or company behind it. We wanted to built a space where open-minded people can communicate, share thoughts and expose themselves freely and without fear of harassment. We believe that sexuality is a key part on human behavior and should not be censored or suppressed. Adult content can be posted here under the rules regarding that.

This is not an only adult content oriented server and wishes to be a multicultural environment where everyone can freely express themselves and communicate with other people promoting knowledge, sharing, communication, mutual aid and of course loving and consenting relationships. It is natural that we don't tolerate fascists, racists and anything promoting violence or oppression.

Defederation of instances and suspension of users comes only with valid reports. So use the reporting tool for anything offending or out of rules.

Donations option through Liberapay and Patreon

Also accepting crypto coins. Ask us to provide more coin addresses.

Feel free to contact us for anything. Welcome!
Instance rules
  1. Sexually explicit or violent media must be marked as sensitive and with a proper Content Warning when posting. Some nudity is acceptable without CW but it should not display sexual acts. Content depicting underage individuals or animal abuse is forbidden.
  2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, or casteism.
  3. No harassment, dogpiling or doxxing of other users.
  4. Do not share intentionally false or misleading information.
  5. No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
  6. Do not spam or post (and boost) only pictures rapidly. Try to post no more than one picture per hour. Bot accounts should be limited to one post per hour.
  7. No, means no
  8. If you're posting a picture that's not yours, try to attribute it correctly if possible. AI content should be marked with a hashtag and appropriate CW if it is NSFW.

Long description
Om Bygda

Fribygda er ei anarkistisk bygd ute på Allheimen, og et sunt alternativ til sentraliserte tjenester som Twitter.

Vi skal være et lite koselig sted for fritt uttrykk, fri utfoldelse og trygge omgivelser. Et perfekt sted for anarkister, venstrelibertarianere, og andre folk som misliker hierarki og elsker frihet.

På denne serveren har vi 18 års aldergrense, og dette er for å forhindre kjipe ting som selvsensur eller krav om ytterligere innholdsmoderering. Men nettopp av den grunn at vi har 18 års aldersgrense, skal det være ingen her som føler behov for å begrense (utover egen trengsel) deling av slikt som nakenhet/intimopplevelser, sex/erotikk, rusopplevelser, traumatiske opplevelser, og andre særlig personlige historier. Vårt samfunn skal være et trygt sted, hvor for folk kan føle at de kan være åpne om seg selv, og de tingene de er opptatt av. Dette kommer dog med en forventning, nemlig at man bruker innholdsvarsel dersom det man ønsker å dele kan være ubehagelig eller virke forstyrrende for medbygdinger. Det hele koker litt ned til denne tanken: i utgangspunktet er alt tillat, men av det du gjør, må du kunne rettferdiggjøre det også, og kunne vise at du har respekt og omtanke for de du deler server med. Greier alle sammen å vise en god grad av respekt og omtanke for hverandre, er det lite behov regler.

Om Språk

Fribygdas Natteravn kan til tider vise aspekter av sin Totning bakgrunn. Men dette er ingen standard for mål - her er det bare språkanarki 😄 Alle dialekter, all mangel på dialekt, alle minioritetsspråk, til og med alle fremmedspråk, fiktive språk, mangel på grammatikk og grovt sammenstabla setninger som knapt kan kalles språk - her er alt velkomment! Her taler enhver bygding slik de selv føler, om enn så BRÆTT dæ sku vøri.

Om Admin og Serverdemokrati

Fribygdas Natteravn er Fribygdas admin og moderator, og er en konto drevet av Amici Nybråten.

Fribygda er dog også en demokratisk server, så fra og med lansering vil alle derfor kunne foreslå server blokkering/avblokkering, og alle slike avgjørelser vil så utlyses via Fribygdas Natteravn, hvor folk kan komme med innsigelser på forslaget. Evnt. vedvarende uenigheter etter diskusjon løses gjennom avstemming via tut. Videre har alle brukere rett til å få admin kontoavgjørelser tatt opp til felles diskusjon via tut fra natteravnen, hvor de kan få en kjangse til å tale for seg, og evnt. få en omgjøring av vedtaket dersom andre medlemmer ønsker dette (igjen, så løses vedvarende uenigheter ved tut-avstemning).

Mastodon Server Covenant /m Nyttig Info

Fribygda forholder seg til Mastodon Server Covenant, og i den forbindelse er det en del ekstra informasjon å avklare.

Hva er praksis for moderasjon?

Admin slår hardt ned på alt av rasisme, sexisme, homofobi, transfobi og ableism, og server som tillater slikt vil bli blokkert fra føderering med Fribygda. Admin har allerede blokkert / begrenset over 300 server i forbindelse med lansering, og har fortsatt arbeidet siden med å stenge ute server hvor bevisene ligger til for at de tillater denne typen faenskap. For annet innhold som skulle være enten særdeles ekkelt eller særdeles vondt, produsert med enten onde hensikter eller særdeles grov ansvarsløshet, vil admin også kunne se det riktig alt etter skjønn å gjennomføre begrensinger, blokkeringer, og sletting av server, brukere, og innhold.

Hva om noe galt skulle skje med teknisk infrastruktur?

Fribygda.no er ivaretatt av Masto.Host (https://mastodon.social/@mastohost) som sikrer oss regelmessig oppdatering, vedlikehold, og tilgang til daglig backup. Utover dette så er også Pilum (https://fribygda.no/@pilum) reserve ansvarlig for serveren i tilfelle krise hos hovedansvarlige Amici Nybråten. Pilum har sikret tilgang til serverens offisielle Mastodon konto (https://fribygda.no/@fribygda), serverens epost, og serverens konto på Masto.Host for drifting av infrastrukturen, skulle det trenges.

Hva skjer dersom serveren legges ned?

Målet for fribygda.no er å vare så lenge som mulig, i mange mange år, men kommer den tiden hvor serveren skulle legges ned, så vil alle medlemmer bli varslet om dette minst 3 måneder i forveien (og gjerne lenger), som påkrevd av Mastodon Server Covenant, og dermed ha god til for å finne seg en ny server og migrere.

Oppfordringer til deg

Vis respekt og omtanke for dine medbygdinger!

Og ALDRI tolerer fascister!

Tilslutt, tips for en god diskusjon er å lese gjennom Arne Næss sine normer for saklighet, beskrevet i punktene under:

  1. Unngå tendensiøst utenomsnakk

    Eksempler: Personkarakteristikker, påstander om motpartens motiver, årsaksforklaringer til argument.

  2. Unngå tendensiøse gjengivelser

    Gjengivelsen må være nøytral med tanke på stridsspørsmål.

  3. Unngå tendensiøs flertydighet

    Flertydigheten gjør at argumentet kan tilpasses kritikken.

  4. Unngå tendensiøs bruk av stråmenn

    Dette vil si å tillegge motstanders standpunkt et innhold han ikke står inne for.

  5. Unngå tendensiøse originalfremstillinger

    Informasjon som legges frem, må ikke være usann, ufullstendig, skjev og/eller holde tilbake relevant informasjon.

  6. Unngå tendensiøse tilberedelser av innlegg

    Eksempler: ironi, sarkasme, skjellsord, overdrivelser eller trusler.

Instance rules
  1. aldri tolerer fascister! (inkl. sionister)
  2. tenk gjennom hva du tuter
  3. bruk innholdsvarsel (hvis du tror det gagner dine medbygdinger)
  4. ikke vær et rasshøl
  5. rasisme, sexisme, homofobi, transfobi, ableism, m.m. er selvfølgelig slått ned på
