Grow Your Own Services 🌱<p>To follow on from yesterday's post, servers naturally see more of the Fediverse as their members follow accounts on other servers. If this is happening too slowly for you, there are also ways to more quickly increase the amount of accounts and posts your server can see:</p><p>➡️ <a href="https://fedi.tips/using-relays-to-quickly-expand-a-servers-view-of-the-fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fedi.tips/using-relays-to-quic</span><span class="invisible">kly-expand-a-servers-view-of-the-fediverse</span></a></p><p>You can also see a complete list of scenarios which make servers notice accounts and posts here:</p><p>➡️ <a href="https://fedi.tips/which-posts-and-accounts-can-i-see-from-my-server" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fedi.tips/which-posts-and-acco</span><span class="invisible">unts-can-i-see-from-my-server</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.growyourown.services/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://social.growyourown.services/tags/FediAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediAdmin</span></a></p>

Grow Your Own Services 🌱<p>Still seeing posts from server admins that say "boost this post to help my server federate". It's unclear where this idea comes from, as boosting posts does not do anything to help a server federate.</p><p>Servers do not connect to entire other servers, they only connect to specific accounts on other servers.</p><p>If you want your server to federate more, encourage your server's members to follow more people on other servers, and encourage people on other servers to follow your members.</p><p><a href="https://social.growyourown.services/tags/FediAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediAdmin</span></a></p>

Grow Your Own Services 🌱<p>Are you a club, co-operative, institution, business or other organisation that wants to run a Mastodon server?</p><p>If so, you might want to get to know the "roles" system in Mastodon's administrative tools. This is an extremely useful and flexible way of assigning titles and powers to staff on your server. It also includes an (optional) hierarchy which makes cases of disagreement easier to resolve.</p><p>You can find out more info about it at:</p><p>➡️ <a href="https://fedi.tips/how-can-organisations-or-groups-run-a-mastodon-server" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fedi.tips/how-can-organisation</span><span class="invisible">s-or-groups-run-a-mastodon-server</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.growyourown.services/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://social.growyourown.services/tags/FediAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediAdmin</span></a></p>

Mastodon.ie<p>Hey folks,</p><p>Similar to the recent mastodon.social limiting, we've seen an uptick in spam bots from mastodon.world. As a result, we've limited the instance.</p><p>This again means that you'll only be able to see posts from those accounts that you already follow.</p><p>Thanks</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/mastodaoine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastodaoine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/fediadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fediadmin</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/fediadmins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fediadmins</span></a></p>
