We've been considering shutting down our Mastodon instance due to the level of hate directed towards us on the platform including harassment and fabricated stories targeting our project members. We've decided to import the minimal FediNuke blocklist to cut down on some of this from reaching us.

However, this is far from sufficient as much of the harassment comes from mainstream Mastodon instances. Support for the harassment is pervasive in many open source communities.
