A small server with lofty ambition of becoming the most popular Mastodon instance based on a throwaway Tolkien reference!

Support the community at https://ko-fi.com/oliphaunt

Oliphaunt is a (currently) small server administered by geeks who are interested in learning about all sorts of topics. We aim to be a safe and welcoming place for all comers and especially those looking for engaged admins willing to moderate away the rougher parts of the fediverse.

1. No discrimination or hate speech, including but not limited to racism, sexism, homophobia or transphobia.
2. No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
3. No disinformation regarding public health issues or political/military campaigns.
4. No harassment of other users on this or other servers or services.
5. No spam. This includes commercial advertising, promotional campaigns, and SEO. Individuals promoting their own work or works they enjoy is acceptable within reason. We're here to help people socialize, not boost brands.
6. No uploading of pirated media or materials. Even with an obvious fair use claim, please link to third-party hosting for anything outside normal social media usage like reaction gifs.

The fuzziest cubhub on the fediverse! A Mastodon instance for babyfurs, diaperfurs, middles, caretakers, and anyone interested in the community! 18+ Users Only

This server aims to provide a safe space for 18+ furry ABDLs who identify with any age, be they babyfur, kidfur, teenfur, caretaker, and so on! This server is open to anyone who partakes in or is curious about the furry ABDL community. All fluffies, scalies, and humans are welcome, crinkling not required! However, expect to see many types of crinkly critters, their photos, and their art on this instance.

Please be aware that this is an ABDL/babyfur space and as such our Content Warning policy around ABDL material may be more relaxed than other furry servers.

Note: Our name is cubhub.social but cub porn is NOT allowed.

Why The Name?

I picked the name 'CubHub.social' because, despite the current negative connotation around the word 'cub', CubHubs were the first places at furry conventions I felt safe being an ABDL while also coming to grips with my furry side. For those who don't know, CubHubs are private rooms/party rooms that serve as safe spaces for babyfurs, kidfurs, diaperfurs, etc at conventions. Before ABDLs were as accepted into the fandom as they are now, CubHubs were the only place where it was absolutely safe to be yourself. So, yeah, I couldn't think of a better ethos to bring to the Fediverse. I want CubHub to be a safe space on Fedi for all fuzzy ABDLs.

Content Warnings & Moderation

Content Warnings

We require warnings on certain types of material posted in both text posts and image posts.

FAQs for Content Warnings on Media:

This list is not exhaustive. These are simply the CWs we get asked about the most. Please read the Rules Section to the right or below for a more general but comprehensive list.

No Content Warning Needed:

• ABDL Clothing
• Clean or Soggy Diapers
• SFW ABDL/Furry Art
• Fursuits
• Pup Hoods and Harnesses if Clothed Underneath
• Light/Cutesy Age Regression or Hypnosis
• Diaper Pats/Play Swatting

Content Warning Needed:

• Political Posts
• Depictions or Detailed Descriptions of Drug/Alcohol Use
• Nudity or Sex/Yiff
• Leaking or Messy Diapers
• Watersports/Wetting Through Clothes
• Obvious Erections Under Clothing/Tented Diapers
• Murrsuits With Genitalia Showing
• Heavy Bondage (straitjackets, full body bindings, gags, etc)
• Needles
• Heavier Age Regression or Hypnosis (unwilling subjects, mental destruction-- use your best judgment here since it's a gray area)
• Spanking/Red Cheeks/Impact Play
• Every story post regardless of whether it's SFW just so users know what they're reading before they do.

Recommended But Not Required

• ABDL/Furry Fandom Discourse
• Photos Cropped to a Diapered Crotch/Butt

Note: You cannot use content warnings too much! If you're on the fence or you'd rather CW a post even if it's not required, we recommend that you do so. It also helps when users follow you who may not be into the same subject matter as you are!

Content Warning How-To

There is a ⚠️ button under your post compose box. When clicking on it, it'll open a new text box that'll let you fill out a description of the post content.

When tagging, be concise but also descriptive of the contents of the post. Examples being, don't say 'NSFW' but instead try 'Messy Diapers' or 'M/M Yiff'. Similarly, don't say 'News', try 'US Politics, Elections' to help out non-US users.

Content warning moderation isn't particularly strict. If your post is missing a Content Warning, a staff member will usually mark it as sensitive and ask that you add CW tags to it. Repeatedly failing to use CWs will result in a time-out and your video games taken away, or just having your account marked as sensitive.

Moderation

Failure to adhere to the server rules may lead to something as simple as a warning, up through content removal, silencing, and a ban. If you feel action taken against you was incorrect, you may appeal the action to the administration. However, we have a zero tolerance policy for hate speech or pro-fascist imagery of any kind, and it will result in an immediate ban with no appeal. Nazi symbols, Confederate imagery, content in favor of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Zionist imagery and rhetoric, and Blue Lives Matter talk are all unwelcome here.

Reporting Posts

If a post violates our rules, we ask that users fill out a report for the moderation staff. Please do not confront other users directly.

Reporting Posts from Other Instances

If a post from another server appears in our federated timeline and has content that breaks our rules, please report it! If it's art that's simply missing a CW, a moderator can mark it as sensitive. If it's something more egregious, the user or even the instance can be limited or defederated from us.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do not select the "Forward to [instance]" option in the report unless you verify that the post breaks the rules of their home server as well. Servers have different rules and what may be inappropriate here may be entirely appropriate elsewhere!

Tips & Tricks

Hashtags

Using Hashtags

Using hashtags immensely boosts the visibility of your posts! Because there are no algorithms, it's up to users to find the content they want to see. As such, using hashtags makes discoverability much easier. #FurryArt, #ABDLArt, or #BabyfurArt are all hashtags people are following and will mean your post will be seen by more users.

Following Hashtags

Mastodon allows you to follow hashtags so you can have any posts tagged with a hashtag show up in your Home timeline. To follow a hashtag, type the hashtag you want to follow in the search box then hit the follow button in the top right corner.

Roleplaying

As our community has such a large roleplaying community, we recommend users indicate whether or not they roleplay in their profile. Users looking to roleplay should check the profile of the person they're interacting with to see if they're up for it and ask if they're unsure.

Image Accessibility

When posting images, we implore all users to include a description of what is in the image by providing alt text. To add alt text, click the edit button while you're posting your picture and fill in the details under "Describe for the visually impaired" and save it. This really helps users with accessibility needs! Many Mastodon users will only boost images with alt text, so it's a good habit to get into.

Markdown In Posts

You can use Markdown in your posts by clicking the icon below the compose box that looks like a sheet of paper, then clicking Markdown. You can set your posts to default to Markdown by going into your Settings > Preferences > Other > Default format for toots and selecting Markdown.

If you're new to markdown, try this Markdown Tool here.

Federation

Any user you follow from another instance will then federate with our server. This means any and all posts they make will appear on our federated timeline, unless the server has been limited (see the Moderated Servers section below).

If a user/post isn't federated with us that you want to follow/like/boost, you can copy the link to the user/post into the CubHub search box and our server will federate it, thus allowing you to interact.

CubHub Interface Tweaks

Our server runs a version of Mastodon based on Ruffy that's a fork of Glitch-Soc. Ruffy has a two-column theme, customizable accent colors, emoji reactions, and much more.

To see all of the available options to tweak the look of CubHub, click the three cog wheels icon in the top right of the desktop interface, or Interface settings in the hamburger menu of the mobile interface!

Mobile Apps

While the default Mastodon mobile app is good enough, it's missing features that are custom to CubHub. To this end, we recommend that Android users use Moshidon. From there, users can go to Overflow Menu > Settings > Instance and turn on Enable post formatting, Enable emoji reactions, and Server supports local-only posting and make sure Glitch local-only mode is off.

Server Information

Transparency Pledge

We want to run this instance with as much transparency as possible. Please, if users have any questions at all, contact anyone on the moderation or administration staff. If there are any moderation questions, technical questions about the server, and so on, we'd be more than glad to answer them.

The Server's Longevity

A lot of users have concerns about admins abruptly shutting down their instances and the users losing what they've built. CubHub is completely and utterly committed to keeping the server going long-term and continuing to be a place for furry ABs, DLs, middles, grown-ups, etc to congregate. However, in the event of something catastrophic, here is our pledge:

1. If the admin is unable to continue to administrating the server, the server will be handed over to someone the community has approved of running the instance.
2. If a replacement can't be found, the server will remain up for at least 30 days from the initial notice of closure, so users can migrate their content and their followers to a new instance with plenty of notice.

A Note From Rusty: This is like some worst case scenario stuff, but I want people to feel safe hosting their content here and know there's a backup plan in the event of catastrophe. I love running this instance and I love this community and I really don't wanna go anywhere!

Server Costs

• Server Host: $72.00 Monthly
• Daily Backups: $10.00 Monthly
• S3 Storage: ≈$10.00 Monthly
• Domain Registrar: $46.16 Yearly
• Email Server: $95.00 Bi-Yearly

Note: Our S3 storage hosts things like our pictures, videos, and other media. It tends to fluctuate and should very slowly climb in cost over time, though likely not by much.

Custom Emojis

If you would like to see a particular emoji set added, please DM the administration! Tip: You can hover the mouse cursor over or tap on an emoji in a post or profile to expand it and see it better.

Translation Tool

CubHub has a translation button for posts that do not match your interface language. This service uses DeepL. This means that, in order for posts to be translated, they will be sent to the DeepL servers for translation. Please refer to their Privacy Policy for any privacy or data security concerns. DeepL is fully GDPR compliant.

You must have your post language set correctly in order for the translation tool to work properly. You can select your language in the compose box next to the CW button.

1. No minors. This is an adult instance and minors are not allowed. You must be 18+ to join and interact.
2. No cub/child porn. No porn depicting any underage character in a sexual situation or in the presence of one is allowed. Cub/child nudity with exposed genitalia is similarly not allowed.
3. No zoophilia. Do not post art depicting any animal in a sexual situation. Quadruped characters with full human mental faculties are fine.
4. Use content warnings (CW's) for text posts when appropriate. If discussing topics such as politics, current events, mental health, plot spoilers, descriptions of sex/kink, or other subjects users may find objectionable or triggering, you must content warn it and tag it appropriately.
5. Use content warnings (CW's) for sensitive media. Any media that features nudity/yiff/heavy kink/straitjackets & tied up characters/impact play & spanking/material with the intent to arouse, alcohol/drug use, violence/gore, or other objectionable/triggering content must be tagged with a content warning. Leaking/messy diapers must be CW'd. Please note whether it's art or photography.
6. Use content warnings (CWs) for all story posts. As CubHub has a 100k character limit, stories can be posted inline within posts. Please use content warnings for all story posts even if it's SFW. This is just so people can know what to expect from your story before reading!
7. No NSFW banners or avatars. Banners and avatars that display nudity, yiff, erections under clothing, or other sexual material, or themes users may find objectionable are not allowed. If you could have it on a badge or dress that way at a convention, it can be in your avatar/banner.
8. No harassment. Do not call out, demean, or harass a member of this or any Fediverse community. To that end, if an issue arises with another Fediverse user, please contact the moderation staff directly or use the report feature.
9. No illegal content. Do not post copyrighted material without permission from the content owner, do not post threats of violence against an individual, and do not post any content that would be deemed illegal for our server to host within the jurisdiction of the United States.
10. Artwork posted must be yours or have consent from the original artist. If you post the artwork of another artist, you must have their consent for it to be posted and you must include credit to the artist who drew it. If using stickers, the credit can be included in the image description
11. No hate speech. This includes but isn't limited to hate towards race, religion, spirituality, sexualities, or gender identities. Promotion of hateful ideologies such as Nazism, the Confederacy, MAGA, or Blue Lives Matter is also considered hate speech. Any hate speech will result in an immediate ban.
12. No disinformation. Do not spread disinformation about elections, current events, COVID-19, 5G, vaccines, etc.
13. No spam. While advertising yourself is allowed, please do not repeatedly spam advertisements for your services or commissions. Crypto, NFTs, and advertisements for sex work are entirely banned, do not post or boost them.
14. Bot and parody accounts must be labelled as such. Additionally, bot accounts that affect server performance will be immediately removed.
15. Media that is entirely AI-generated must be CW'd, and all works featuring AI-generated content must include the tools used to generate it in the message body. This does not include works that use AI as reference material or AI removal tools such as Magic Eraser.

If you just want to hang out with interesting people, that's fine, too. Try the hashtags #introduction and #HelpDesk if you do join.

While not a legal document, what follows is a guideline to acceptable behaviour and content on this instance. This instance will not tolerate any of the following:

• Racism, or advocacy thereof
• Sexism, or advocacy thereof
• Discrimination on the basis of gender, sexual orientation or, well, anything really, or advocacy thereof

Escaping centralized megacorporate platforms is important, so we've launched this Mastodon server targeted at voluntarists, freedom-loving anarchists, libertarians, & listeners of Free Talk Live.

Please read this fully.

There is not a megacorporate overlord on this server. We'd rather not spend our time dealing with moderation issues, so if someone is bothering you, please use the block feature. If you are bothering people and you become a problem, you will be removed and blocked. Play nice, thank you.

Spammers are not welcome.

Important Features

• Your Profile and Settings: Take a few minutes to go over your profile, upload a photo, and fill out the fields, then edit your preference to ensure the site is set up to your liking. There are some important settings like "Enable advanced web interface" which switches the site to a multiple-column display. You can also change to a dark theme if you prefer that, among other features. If you're a previous Mastodon user, you can migrate your followers from your other account to this one, if you like.


• Multiple Mobile and Desktop Apps: Since Mastodon is open source, there are multiple mobile and desktop apps available for multiple operating systems. Unlike Big Tech which only gives you one option - their app, here you have a choice. Which is best? Depends on what you like.


• Your RSS feed: Your posts are available as a feed with which you can do various things, like add to your blog or website. Or tie them into a system like IFTTT.com (though it's centralized) and then on each new post you make, you can have IFTTT repost it to your other social media accounts that haven't been deplatformed yet, like a Twitter or Facebook. To find your RSS feed, visit: https://social.freetalklive.com/users/YourUsername.rss Except put your username in where "YourUsername" is, and don't include the @ symbol.

1. No snitching. Use the block feature instead of reporting posts you don't like.
2. No spamming.

Public Mastodon instance for anarchists, cypherpunks and retrocomputing enthusiasts, courtesy of 4d2 dot org

Since 2001, 4d2 dot org has worked to provide interested folks with free access to communication and collaboration services in a mixed Linux/BSD environment. We focus on technical transparency, user privacy and free speech, with a dash of anarchy, cypherpunk and retrocomputing for good measure.

See 4d2.org for system status and information about our other public services.

Please read our complete Terms of Service to understand your rights and responsibilities before using this service.

1. Don't infringe others' intellectual property
2. No hate speech on the basis of race, national origin, caste, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, physical characteristics, age, disability, or disease
3. Don't share others' personal information without their consent
4. No actual or apparent child sex abuse material (CSAM)
5. No fictional, sexually explicit illustrations or animations that appear to depict underage people ("lolicon"/"shotacon")
6. No sexually explicit material combined with text or illustrations suggesting that anyone depicted is underage

A queer and kink-friendly den for creatures and furries. 18+ only.

Denden.world is a queer, furry, pokefur and therian friendly fediverse space.

This instance is run by @kiophen to provide a den in the fediverse with minimal defederation.

CODE OF CONDUCT

You have to follow the rules to use this instance. I don't want to get our instance suspended by other instances and want this to be a pleasant place to be. Please follow our rules and try to be courteous to the fediverse culture in public posts. The rules are available in the "server rules" tab below.

Explicit pornographic content must use a Content Warning, but the extent that you use other CWs is up to you. It is encouraged to CW common topics that bother people when posting on Public. Public posts will show up to people who do not follow you on the federated/local timelines, so be courteous.

Unlisted posts will show up for non-followers if someone reblogs your post, but I think that should be up to the sharer to decide if they want to share an non-CW'd post to their followers. * Please note that people can see unlisted posts if they visit your profile.

Followers-Only posts are only visible to logged-in followers and cannot be reblogged. It's up to you if you want to CW these, only your followers will be able to see them.

FEDERATION POLICY

Denden will blacklist instances that foster hate-speech, harassment, CSAM (child sex abuse material), or anything else that is illegal to host in the United States.

Denden does not use pre-made instance blocklists. There have been too many occasions of blocklists being manipulated by bad actors to include innocent people for me to trust them. Blocked instances are individually vetted by the admins.

We will not blacklist instances based on 'guilt-by-federation': if an instance federates with a "bad" instance, but otherwise does not foster bad behavior (racism/harassment/etc), it will not be blacklisted.

We will also not blacklist an instance solely based on disputes with admins. The actions of admins do not necessarily represent the views of regular users on the instance.

Note: Denden's rules are designed to both foster a pleasant community as well as minimize the likelihood of being blacklisted by other instances. The content mentioned in rule 4 is illegal in France, where many instances are hosted.

INFO FOR DENDEN USERS

Other instances won't be suspended unless they foster hate-speech, harassment, or CSAM. You might see content that you don't like in the federated timeline. Make sure to set filters in your account settings.

Instead of us suspending instances, I encourage you to curate your own instance blocklist. You can block an instance in the same way you can block a user, you will not see anything from the whole instance, and users in that instance will not be able to interact with you.

In the event I need to take the server down for good, I will give everyone at least 3 months notice to export your data and migrate to another server.

MODERATION

If someone is being troublesome, please report them. If they're from another instance, I am able to block them from this instance.

Please only forward reports to a rule-breaker's instance if they are breaking the rules on their instance as well. You are anonymous to other instance's admins in forwarded reports.

NOTE TO OTHER ADMINS

If you have an issue with our rules or user's behavior, I would greatly appreciate letting me know at @kiophen before defederating. I'm open to listen and try to resolve problems.
