Short description
Pictures and politics and other things. The new house eclectech Mastodon server launched November 2022. Let's see how this pans out.
Long description
What will you find here?

We make and post lots of silly images, nonsense animations, more silly images, a few nice photos, and some general wittering from those within house eclectech. Also contains occasional moans about UK politics and tech geekery.

This is a small server and isn't open to registrations

What isn't acceptable here?

The things.uk server rules can be summarised as Be Nice and Be Kind.

  • No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia or xenophobia.
  • No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
  • No harassment, dogpiling or doxxing of anyone.
  • Do not share intentionally false or misleading information. If you do so accidentally then correct it as soon as possible.
  • No content illegal in the UK.

Tech stuff

Running on an IPv6 only Raspberry PI at Mythic Beasts (@beasts). Currently testing a customised DNS server which rewrites query responses to improve real world connectivity.

The moderated server list is private - we have few users, so it is more like a personal list. In general we block any instance that doesn't fit with the server rules.
