@Gargron Wouldn't it be an idea to close Mastodon.social for a little while for new users, then weed out the accounts that are demanding changes but are not patreons, and those who break server rules. Then, what about partnering with a company or The European Commission? For a long term solution? Suppose this influx continues, and all the companies and trolls from Twitter also sign up to here. You might be too tired to think of a solution now, but trust me, do it before you crash.
