Short description
Speak your mind with respect. In Boston, MA area, but open to the entire galaxy. Posting size is 12K characters because you have interesting things to say. Using Cloudflare aggressive AI Bot blocking.
Long description
This is a general-purpose Mastodon server administrated in the Greater Boston, Massachusetts area. All are welcome to sign up, so long as the rules are followed.

We federate with Threads, some do not. Read our Threads FAQ.

We use Cloudflare to block artificial intelligence (AI) bots, crawlers, and scrapers from scraping your content for training large language models (LLM) to recreate posts without your permission.

While most Mastodon servers are limited to 500 character posts, here posts can be up to 12,000 characters because we think you have important things to write.

We also relay with over 1,500 other servers, some quite large. This means that we have all the active accounts and posts from those servers, in addition to the accounts and posts seen by people following and being followed here. So, while this server appears to have a moderate number of members, the experience and content is equal to the larger servers while having the benefits of a smaller instance: Stronger moderation, better protection, and consistent performance. How can we handle so many posts? We have unlimited storage.

You can see the incoming messages arriving here from all over the Fediverse by going to our Live feed

Here, Admins and Moderators are forbidden to secretly shadow-ban our own users ("limit" or "silence"). We will always notify the account owner of the action and the reason. Hidden shadow-banning, sadly, is done on some other servers when the Admins do not agree with what the account owner posts and the account owner is therefore unaware that nobody is reading their posts. We consider this unethical. We do block/limit remote accounts that violate our policies and terms of service without notifying them, but not accounts that are created here.

When signing up, you must read the quick, short, set of rules presented to you. Requesting an account is confirmation that you have read and agree to abide by our rules.

Things you MUST know before choosing a server

When people choose a Mastodon server, I don't think they think much about it. They either find one listed on some website, or they want to go to the biggest. But, you should consider some other things:



  • Is it running the latest version? Currently, the latest Mastodon version is 4.2.12. There is also an alternative glitch version which should be v4.3.0-alpha.5+glitch or higher. The version number is in the lower left on the "about" page. Any server that has not upgraded either has an Admin incapable of doing it or isn't interested much in maintaining the server. This might mean your data isn't being backed up either, and you certainly are not getting the best experience. Reliability and security could become a concern. Please avoid servers that are running old versions. Some of the biggest are not updated.



  • Is it the biggest server? If you appreciate moderation, or you are in a targeted group, a huge server may not be best for you. A smaller server has more moderation. You also can get the Admin's attention when you need it. Performance on larger servers is not always the best either. And you may prefer a server that focuses on a particular interest rather than a general-purpose instance. We are general purpose.


Enjoy!

Excellent Mastodon FAQ

Tips on using Mastodon

Lots of information on how to use Mastodon

Technical information and work log

Important to know to get the most from Mastodon, is to understand the difference between hashtag use on Twitter and on Mastodon.

You can follow hashtags in Mastodon so that any posts visible to this server that have the hashtag, will appear in your timeline. You don't have to search for a hashtag as you do on Twitter.

Therefore, using hashtags in Mastodon is important if you want people in other instances to see your post. And it's a great way to be discovered and to discover other interesting people.

You can follow a hashtag by clicking on it within a post and then clicking the "+" in the top-right corner.

On this server, the maximum number of characters in a post is 12,000. The Mastodon default is 500, but I bumped it higher. Also, note that a URL in a Mastodon post always counts as 23 characters, regardless of its true length. URL shorteners are not required for Mastodon posts.

Leaving Twitter? Add your Mastodon account name to your Twitter profile, so others can find you on Mastodon. Your Mastodon account name looks something like this: @jerry@hear-me.social

DMCA Takedown Notices: We adhere to the rules regarding DMCA Intellectual Property takedown notices. Please send notices to DMCA@hear-me.social. This email address is registered with the U.S. Copyright Office

This server prohibits posting copyright-protected materials, and we will remove these materials when notified. Anyone found posting copyrighted materials may or may not be notified before having their account suspended. A suspended account has 30 days to contact us, at admin@hear-me.social, to appeal.

This server prohibits posting Child Sexual Abuse Materials (CSAM). Images are actively scanned. Their mathematical hashes are compared to the hashes of known CSAM images in the NCMEC.ORG database. Any matches are automatically reported, and the image is blocked. Nobody, nor any software, looks at the actual images, it's just a mathematical calculation on the bits.

While I do not believe anyone on this server posts CSAM material, since we relay with over 1,500 other servers, it is necessary to scan the images the server is exposed to.
Instance rules
  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, threats, doxing, trolling, or ageism. No attacks on someone's religion, culture, language, or country of origin. Don't be insulting and argumentative.To be here, you must be nice to people.
  2. No spreading of misinformation
  3. Do not spam or create spam accounts
  4. No impersonating people or brands. Satire must be clearly labeled
  5. Do not post Copyrighted materials. We adhere to DMCA take-down notices. See our DMCA policy at the bottom of https://hear-me.social/about. DMCA Registration number: DMCA-1044123
  6. No ads without permission. Accounts that appear to be created just to promote products and websites will be suspended. In some cases, we may allow the account to remain, but may limit the account.
  7. NO CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE POSTINGS (CSAM)! Be aware that we have Cloudflare automatically scan cached images for CSAM violations. They match mathematical image hashes to a database of known CSAM hashes.
  8. Posting nude photos or controversial pictures and posts without content warnings and appropriate hashtags is not allowed. Also, using inappropriate hashtags to unfairly extend the reach of a post is also not allowed
  9. Targeted misgendering, deadnaming, or promotion of so-called "conversion therapy" is prohibited.
