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 9,833 Mastodon instances, with 9,871,568 users (796,693 active during last month) and 1,052,847,549 published statuses. [Show Threads moderation statistics]

Threads moderation statistics

These statistics on the status of Threads moderation are based on the list of moderated instances, which is accessible only on some instances, and on the list of instances adhering to the Anti-Meta Fedi Pact.

PKM.social is an Mastodon instance that is open to anyone who is interested in Personal Knowledge Management, but don't feel like you have to post ONLY PKM-related stuff. But you DO have to be nice. :)
Instance rules
  1. Do not use slurs or racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist or otherwise discriminatory or hateful jokes or language or promote white supremacy, anti-Semitism, transphobia or other hateful ideologies.
  2. Do not harass anyone, participate in group harassment of anyone, or otherwise engage in personal attacks. Posting or threatening to post other people’s personally identifying information (“doxing”) constitutes harassment.

  4. Do not post about inflammatory, controversial subjects without a Content Warning.
  5. Do not engage in name calling, ad hominem attacks, or any other uncivil behaviour; criticize ideas, never people.

(she/her) I'm a Developer Advocate by day and YouTuber by night. I like to talk about observability, software testing, learning in public, and taking notes, particularly in Obsidian.

I'm a Filipino-Australian-Dutch cis pansexual agnostic polyglot. If any of that makes you uncomfortable, you probably shouldn't follow me...

Talk to me in: TL EN NL ES EO DE FR IT PT SV. I might not respond fluently after the first five, but I'll respond!

I own and manage pkm.social.

Server announcements can be found at @announcements

Don't hesitate to say hi, or ask any questions!

If you see content that violates our rules, please use the report feature, or notify an administrator.

Most importantly, have fun and be nice to each other! Our main priority is to protect our users from the darker part of the fediverse. Thus, we employ instance-wide pre-emptive blocking and muting of users and instances that are in conflict with the rules defined below.

Twootsite will always go for the option that minimises harm whilst maximising freedom.

Inactivity

After a long while of inactivity, accounts are scheduled for deletion. New and unused accounts will be scheduled for deletion quicker. This is to enhance the privacy of users that may have forgotten they have an account. Remember to retrieve a backup of your data before this time as the deletion is irreversible. A warning will be sent out before deletion in case the user has just forgotten about the account.

Donation

You can donate to Twootsite to keep the servers running at Liberapay

Our instance blocklist is available upon request.
Instance rules
  1. Hate speech and discrimination, such as, but not limited to, racism, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia and abelism and content illegal in Europe is not allowed in any form.
  2. Content warnings (CWs) are often either required or highly encouraged to keep our server safe and friendly for as many people as possible. CW-ing nudity, lewdness, politics, gore and spam-like posts are all mandatory. Failure to comply will result in account limiting.
  3. Bios (account biographies) should be kept "safe for work". Highly distracting, lewd or otherwise obscene avatar or header images are not allowed.
  4. Malicious or misleading information (such as, but not limited to, anti-science, fake news and hate brigading) are bannable offences. This also includes the encouragement and normalising of said information. Such content can, for example, include anti-vaccine and alternative medicine.
  5. Extreme political content, such as Nazism, authoritarianism, "tankieism", and extreme nationalism is a bannable offence. An exception to this are news stories and meta around these topics.
  6. Incitement of violence, regardless of the situation, is generally not allowed and appropriate content warnings is required as a minimum! We also realise that there is a difference between punching up vs. down, and that violence is sometimes unavoidable, such as protests.
  7. Advertising is discouraged and is allowed at the discretion of moderators. Commissions related to the arts, charitable causes (that are demonstrably not for-profit) and personal donation requests are exempt. A general rule is that if you think that it would be annoying, put it behind a CW.
  8. We do not allow any bots or automated services including crossposters from other social media sites. You can have a look at sites like "botsin.space" for that kind of stuff.
  9. Doxing and non-consensual breaches of privacy is not allowed and breaking this rule will most likely result in a ban.
  10. Posting uncaptioned media with public visibility is not allowed and will get your account limited, usually if repeated behaviour is observed. Twootsite is supposed to be an inclusive and accessible place. Only local posts are affected by this rule, not remote posts or boosts.

A social media community for residents and friends of Brisbane, Meanjin, South-east Queensland, and the region. Come say hey!
Long description
Welcome to our Brisbane Mastodon server, a place for locals to hang out and chat.

👋 This server is run by Ash and Josh. Please feel free to message us, or email ash@kyd.com.au.

⚖️ This is a moderated instance, in that we don't accept racism, transphobia, or general dickishness, and actively filter out other servers which do. Check out the rules for more info and let us know if something is amiss with the report feature.

SLA & our promise to you

We will do everything we can to keep the server up and running, but stuff happens and we may need to take the server offline for updates, maintenance or other housekeeping. We'll try to keep outages to a minimum and announce them ahead of time.

Note that this is a public server and you shouldn't use it to share private information. If you need to send truly private messages, we suggest using an encrypted messenger like Signal.

With that out of the way, we'd love you to join us! Come say hey :D

Expanded server rules

Our server rules are pretty straightforward, but this expanded version goes into detail:

  1. You must be 18 years or older to use this site.
  2. No adult content: including pornography, sexually explicit content, gore, or extremely graphic violence, including artistic depictions.
  3. Don't punch down: No content that reinforce or advocate social structures of domination related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion (or lack thereof)
  4. No content harmful to the public good, such as incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies, antivax or climate denial.
  5. No harassment, dogpiling or doxxing of other users
  6. No content illegal in Australia or Germany
  7. No corporate/brand accounts. Your art, homemade stuff, and community groups etc are fine. It's also fine to talk about your work/business from your personal account.
Instance rules
  1. You must be 18 years or older
  2. Be good. No harassment, punching down on marginalised groups, or content harmful to the public good. Check our server info for more detail.
  3. No content illegal in Australia or Germany (including overt adult content. i.e. no nudes.)
  4. Personal accounts only. No brands.

Short description
This is a te reo Māori & English instance, for folks in Aotearoa NZ. We've talked openness, technology, improving our society since 2017.
Long description
This service is provided on a best-effort not-for-profit basis by the NZ Open Source Society, a registered charity. Its maintenance is undertaken by volunteer members of the Society, and on-shore hosting in NZ is very generously sponsored by Prodigi, an Aotearoa-based technology services company.

Our Pledge: we have no intention of shutting this service down, but should that ever happen, we will provide at least 2 months grace for all users to ensure they can find another home in the Fediverse without losing any social credit.

We ask that all users are aware of - and adhere to - the New Zealand Open Source Society Code of Conduct.

Any accounts we deem to be spammy will be swiftly suspended.
Instance rules
  1. No automated cross posting from Twitter, RSS, or other services.
  2. No spam (blatant advertising without relevant thoughtful content).
  3. No impersonating other people
  4. Descriptions required for images and video (ALT tag) to support those with sight issues.
  5. In the event of a dispute, site administrators' decisions are made on a good faith basis (informed by the NZOSS Code of Conduct) and are final.
  6. Challenge ideas, respect individuals.
  7. No racism, sexism, ableism, transphobia, or otherwise harassing individuals for what they are.
  8. No commercial accounts for proprietary products. We want real people and Free and Open Source Software/Hardware projects (commercial is fine).
  9. Be civil and be kind. If you need to criticise, punch up, never down. Hate speech, intended to incite or offend, is not acceptable.

We are a LGBTQIA+ (and allies) social instance of Mastodon. Pretty chill. We love gaming (gayming), tech (mostly), art, and meaningful discussions.

We don't allow bigotry, homophobia, transphobia, or racism and we will block and report those accounts we find.

anti-social.online is managed by volunteers and funded by @GoTakeAKnapp. If you want to support this server, you can donate to https://liberapay.com/GoTakeAKnapp
Instance rules
  1. We expect you to be decent to others. You don't have to like other people, but we do not tolerate hate speech, homo/transphobia, fascist rhetoric or anti-science talking points.
  2. You can block people. If someone posts something you really don't like, block them. If it is something that goes against the ToS/Rules, report them, then block them.
  3. This server permits NSFW. That being said, nothing illegal should be posted, and content should be flagged as sensitive. We do log, and monitor, so if something is posted that shouldn't be, we will pass information to the authorities.
  4. Please use Content Warning liberally. This means if there is any question if something should have a Content Warning, give it a Content Warning. Examples include, but are not limited to, mental health, politics, and religion.
  5. Assume Good Faith (AGF): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Assume_good_faith
  6. Content Warning policy. NSFW and lewd content must be set as unlisted or followers only in addition to proper tagging in the CW.
  7. Don't repost artworks without crediting the artist. If you have a link to their gallery, perfect, if only their name, better than nothing. Claiming other's art as your own may lead to suspension.
  8. Bots must be approved and must be marked as bots after approval. Failure to do so will result in the account being terminated.
  9. Bots must serve a purpose for the people on the instance. Examples of good bots include posting pictures from NASA, and posting news from local sources.
