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 9,793 Mastodon instances, with 9,989,100 users (757,758 active during last month) and 1,069,357,200 published statuses. [Show Threads moderation statistics]

It seems like this instance’s server thumbnail’s URL points to a non existent file. This is usually easily fixable by the instance’s admin(s) by uploading again the image to their server. Note that the change won’t be displayed here before the nightly automatic update of this instance’s infos occurs.

A community of people who are fighting against car dominance in San Francisco and beyond and also have various other interests.
Long description
Expectations for people on this server

  1. This server is invite-only, consisting of people who are part of a community of transportation advocates centered in the Bay Area, who also know each other off of the Internet. If you know people on this server IRL, you can ask for an invite.
  2. We don’t tolerate any form of reactionary bigotry: no nazis, no TERFs or transphobes, no racists, etc.
  3. Generally, treat people within this server and related communities with respect. Rule 2 is higher priority than this rule. We also don’t expect you to be polite to, say, someone being racist. But if you make well-moderated servers that we have close ties with want to defederate with us, consider how you are affecting other people on the server.
  4. Most of us are somewhere on the left politically. We don’t have strong ideological requirements, but if your politics are far from those of people on the server, this might not be the server for you.
  5. We mostly want to reduce the use of cars and replace them with better forms of transportation. We don’t require you to be totally car free to use this server, but you should be on board with reducing car dependency.

Content warnings

Please put images of violence (e.g. a video of you being hit by a car) behind a CW.

Similarly, anything that would be uncomfortable to show up on your feed on, say, the bus, should be behind a CW.

In general though we see content warnings as a tool that you may choose to use in different ways. Someone may choose to put something behind a CW, but you don’t have to. In particular, you might see someone putting their personal experiences of experiencing racism behind a content warning, but that does not mean that it’s an expectation of this server.

Server Administration

The plan is to keep the server up indefinitely. Currently two people have access to the server infrastructure, and the intention is that there will always be at least two people who can run the server.

If circumstances change and it becomes necessary to entirely shut it down, we will give three months notice. If it makes sense, and the members of the server are fine with that, we would be willing to transfer ownership to a member of the server instead.

In general, we aim to make server decisions by consensus, and allow people to be as involved in the running of the server as they want to be.

Defederation policies

We will make any new and unexpected decisions by consensus, but to avoid having a discussion every time something comes up, we have already decided anyone can defederate from servers that are a danger to the people on the server or the server infrastructure. This includes:

  • Servers that permit CSAM (child sexual abuse material) or content that resembles such
  • Servers that host fascists or other political movements that are actively hostile and dangerous to our members
  • Servers that host malware, conduct DDOS attacks, or otherwise interfere with the functioning of this server
  • So-called “free speech” servers or servers with such poor moderation that they effectively fall into one of the previous categories
Instance rules
  1. No reactionary bigotry (nazis, TERFs or other transphobes, racists, etc).
  2. Treat people on this server and in your online community with respect. This is lower priority than rule 1.
  3. Don't do anything that will get this server in trouble with the law, or people with expensive lawyers.

Welcome to girldick dot gay – a small, queer, left-wing instance for computer-touching catgirls and more!
Long description
General info

Watch out, we're running an experimental fork of Mastodon. See further down below for details.

This instance is a safe space for queer and/or neurodivergent people. We also strive to become one for the BIPOC, Romani, and other marginalized subgroups of the LGBTQ+ community (see disclaimer below). If you have an issue with that, don't even bother applying for an account. In addition to the bigotry clause in the rule list, we have a zero tolerance policy against any form of fascism and/or authoritarianism. This includes, but is not limited to, nazis and tankies. We are primarily English and German speaking, but other languages are welcome, too. Our main interests are:

  • Being gay on the Internet
  • Touching computers
  • Political discourse about queerness, neurodivergence, and other topics about marginalized people
  • Ending capitalism

Disclaimer for BIPOC, Romani, and other ethnic minorities: This instance, like most others unfortunately, is hopelessly white. I acknowledge this is a problem and would love to do something about it. Feel free to get in touch with me if you have any suggestions to make this place more welcoming to you; i will try my best to accommodate for your needs. Nobody here has sinister intentions, but we are not immune to systemic racism.

Content policy details

Although the name might admittedly suggest otherwise, this is generally not an NSFW-focused instance. However, lewd content of any kind is totally allowed so long as you use appropriate content warnings and respect other people's boundaries. We also explicitly welcome sex workers and lewd alt accounts! Just keep in mind that if you explicitly seek a community centered around sexual topics, this might not be the instance you've been looking for.

Naturally, any depictions of minors in a sexual context will be deleted on sight, period. This phrasing is intentionally kept vague because if you even have to think about whether something would fall under that rule, you definitely shouldn't post it. So-called “MAPs” can fuck right off.

The fediverse is generally not too fond of corporate advertising, and girldick.gay sure is no exception: We don't tolerate any brands except non-profits, small personal businesses, and worker unions. The same applies to defending them. Furthermore, don't post anything that might be considered spam or otherwise unwanted, including excessive self promotion.

If you don't acknowledge the inherent problems with anything related to blockchain technology (including, but not limited to, cryptocurrencies and NFTs), you won't have a good time on here. Talking uncritically positive about that stuff is strongly discouraged, and will likely get you banned if you give off cryptobro vibes.

Moderation & federation

We decide the consequences for rule violations on a case-by-case basis, depending on severity and context. As such, the outcome can be anything between a friendly notice and a permanent ban. We are generally stricter than more popular instances like, say, mastodon.social, because this is supposed to be a cozy little place just for us. This is not the place to debate whether we deserve human rights.

Other instances whose admin either violates these rules themselves or tolerates their users doing so will be defederated entirely. Instances with poor moderation will be either limited or suspended, depending on the severity of the situation.

Technical details

We are running nyastodon, our own custom fork of Mastodon based on glitch-soc and Catstodon.

Note that this is bleeding edge software with some fun quirks compared to vanilla Mastodon, so you might encounter rough spots here and there. The biggest difference is probably support for emoji reactions, which is actually in the process of being merged into upstream right now.

If you're using multiple accounts on this instance, you can use these subdomains to access the web interface from multiple browser tabs:


This instance lives in a VM hosted on a Hetzner dedicated server with full disk encryption. I'm doing daily encrypted backups with a retention period of up to 4 weeks. In spite of all odds, the site actually has reasonable uptime and I usually post a notice before doing planned maintenance (which mostly happens late at night in the CET/CEST time zone).
Instance rules
  1. Absolutely no bigotry against marginalized/repressed groups; including, but not limited to, homophobia, trans-/enbyphobia, misogyny, racism, classism, ableism, etc. As a general rule, don't discriminate against anyone further down the social ladder or, in other words, just don't be an asshole.
  2. Be Gay Do Crime
  3. No illegal content, specifically anything illegal under the jurisdiction of Germany. Yes, be gay do crime, but i don't have the resources to fight legal battles just for girldick.gay to stay online.
  4. Provide alt text for images and videos
  5. Use content warnings where appropriate. For example: selfie/ec (eye contact), mh (mental health), sh (self harm), etc. You get the idea.
  6. Give a hint as to what kind of person you are when signing up. I can't afford to run an instance that needs 24/7 monitoring and moderation, so please reference your website/twitter/previous fediverse account or any other indication that you might fit in this community.
  7. Don't be completely inactive. New accounts should at the very least set up their profile after being accepted; and i reserve the right to delete those that don't after a reasonable time.

Instance rules
  1. Do not break any laws. Use common sense and knowledge of the laws of your country of residence.
  2. Be kind. Discriminatory language based on gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. is not tolerated.
  3. Be respectful. Do not make your issues with another user public. Either settle it in private or contact a moderator.
  4. Use CW (Content Warnings). Make liberal use of CW for content including but not limited to: lewd/kinky/politics (and other polarizing subjects)/drugs/game spoilers. As a rule of thumb: if it'd be awkward to explain in public, put a CW on it.
  5. Keep your avatar/banner safe. Other instances will see these, so avoid any explicit or otherwise highly suggestive content.
  6. You alone are responsible for any and all content you post to this site. You may not post copyrighted content you do not have the right to use.
  7. You may have more than one account, as long as it doesn't violate other rules.

Tabletop gaming chatter in a moderated space. An inclusive community we'd like to hang out in. Not run by a billionaire.

We're making a little friendly Twitter clone using Mastodon which is for #ttrpg (and other tabletop). Like Twitter but with moderation and not owned by a billionaire.

Needs some work yet, but if we get it going we imagine it will be a small friendly inclusive community (we're not planning on taking over the world with it, just making a nice space we'd like to hang out in).

Responsible, representative moderation would be nice, too.

Values

Mastodon Transit Authority builds community and solidarity. We welcome those interested in building thriving communities online and in real-life throughout the Puget Sound Region. We are organizers, nerdy about transit, renters, union members, tech workers, musicians, neighbors, climate activists, mutual aid participants; we are passionate about mobility justice, a right to housing, and cross-race / cross-class / cross-generational / intersectional communities. We endeavor to welcome anyone making a long- or short-term stay here, and make this instance your home.

Code of Conduct

We want people to be curious. To ask questions rather than start with accusations. We also want people to recognize power dynamics and lived experience in terms of their expectations in engaging in online spaces, as they would in face-to-face spaces. If you don’t already practice progressive stack in communities you are in, please take some time to learn what that means and how to implement it. It goes a long way to reducing harm when you’re just starting to build community in person, and online.

We will take swift and clear steps to reduce harmful behaviors. We know harm will happen and we want to make sure you can get help when it does. Moderators on this server will move quickly and seek out additional supports to remove and deter accounts that:

Espouse, or sealion ideals destructive to other people’s well-being, including but not limited to:

  • Violence, racism, classism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, anti-semitism, fascism, ecofascism, ethno-nationalism, settler colonialism, religious extremism, neurotype supremacy

Carry out online behaviors that harm, or emotionally exhaust other people:

  • harassment, brigading (including posts that may encourage others to harass), sealioning, doxxing (weaponization of private information disclosure, such as disclosing or publicizing addresses, email, phone numbers, medical history, private identifying information, etc without consent), spamming, slander, spreading misinformation/disinformation, privacy and consent violations (taking screenshots of “locked” / private-to-follower posts and sharing them publicly without the author’s consent)

Denial of service, proper server operation, and other members’ content readability, including:

  • Running automation or bots in a way that overloads the server, or is unpleasantly noisy for other users

This server is hosted in Washington state, United States and content must not violate local laws.

99% of the time, these rules will not be needed because the people here and in the broader community will be awesome. There's always the chance they aren't, so we have rules. Finally, if you run into a problem, reach out to an admin! Someone can probably fix what ails the server or tell you what's going on.

Technical Safety and Privacy

Because of how Mastodon works, no stored communications here are encrypted. Even things that appear private to you, like direct messages or restricted account posts, are not private relative to the server administrators. Server admins are not allowed, by rule of the server owner, to read this content; however this is enforced only by rule. The admins will treat your data with respect and privacy but if you want to make certain no one is able to see your communications with another person, consider other alternatives such as Signal.

While the instance is backed up regularly, please keep a copy of your own data in case the worst happens.

Moderators and Advisors

This instance has six volunteer administrators and moderators who tend to the server, the software, and keeping posts flowing that are consistent with our rules and values. These folks are, in order by user name: @analogist, @Andres4NY (an admin for the underlying server host and not the instance), @danielhep, @kona, @oowm, @rachael. We will do our best to keep an eye on things, particularly abuse reports. There might be a delay in replying if something major happens or if one or all of us are away.

If this list of people changes, we will make an announcement post to let the community know. If you report a post or user, all of us receive it. Any admin can take action on their own, particularly in urgent situations, but we discuss major actions beforehand.

If you have questions for or want to run something past someone who isn't an admin, you can reach out to Laura Loe of Share the Cities Organizing Collective, our IRL organizing home, at info@sharethecities.org

Potentially Harmful Servers

Content Warning! Abusive server names The list of servers and rationale that have been moderated from federation is accessible here.
Instance rules
  1. Be chill to each other.
  2. No spreading lies.
  3. Everyone is welcome, mean it.
  4. Do not espouse or sealion ideals that are destructive to other people’s well-being.
  5. Do not carry out online behaviors that harm, or emotionally exhaust other people.
  6. Do not carry out behaviors that result in denial of service, proper server operation, and other members’ content readability.
