@dj3ei I recently un-muted the .social instance but I may re-mute it as I'm getting way more reports of spam now.

FWIW: I'm fine either way.

Details:

It sucks to only learn about (legitimate) toots contributed by mastodon.social users to discussions I take part in, only because other people refer to those toots.

It sucks receiving spam.

It is really one of those decisions that can be taken either way.

(There exist those evil things which confront you with decisions where no choice is clean. War tends to do that really fast. Apparently, so also does spam.)

A humble request: I think of muting or un-muting mastodon.social as somewhat major. I'd appreciate your tooting about it so people following you would get to read it. What do you think?

@dj3ei agreed, I tried it to see if the balance of spam had shifted, ready to turn it back off quickly.
I didn't announce it unless I almost immediately revered the change.
