 @emma:rory.gay | it can achieve blocking all incomming invites if you just create a user policy matching @*:* | 13:25:31 |
 emily | I think it sent. not sure if I have permissions | 13:32:37 |
| emily | otherwise Randy Eckenrode can definitely do it | 13:32:42 |
| emily | ah, looks like it went through | 13:32:50 |
 TheTaoOfSu | Go it, thanks! | 13:33:02 |
 teutat3s | If a policy room id (matrix ban list) is added to some module like Mjolnir's Synapse module or synapse-http-antispam, that should make the homeserver that uses the module block the invites. | 15:37:39 |
| teutat3s | * If a policy room id (matrix ban list) is added to some module like Mjolnir's Synapse module or synapse-http-antispam, and the spamming account gets added to that ban list, that should make the homeserver that uses the module block the invites. | 15:37:59 |
| teutat3s | A reject invitation and report room button would be great... Element Web / Desktop has that feature since v1.11.98. | 15:41:01 |
| @emma:rory.gay | synapse http antispam requires the latest draupnir beta | 15:41:24 |
| teutat3s | Yeah, good point. | 15:41:35 |
| @emma:rory.gay | but that assumes you run the server, which well, winter doesnt | 15:41:48 |
| @emma:rory.gay | hence i linked MatrixAntiDmSpam, which doesnt require hs admin intervention :P | 15:42:05 |

To the interested reader: note that the mjolnir module does NOT work with synapse workers | 17:32:35 |

The synapse-http-antispam one does though. | 17:33:05 |
|  oddlama changed their display name from Malte to oddlama. | 17:41:36 |

 uep | That still has to be done on every homeserver though. | 22:35:12 |
| @emma:rory.gay | and this has to be done for individual users, community tooling can only go so far without having to patch the living hell out of server software, sadly | 22:37:49 |
| @emma:rory.gay | something is better than nothing, after all | 22:38:03 |
| uep | Totally agree. A feature in common clients would go a long way too | 22:59:21 |
| @emma:rory.gay | that doesnt mean dismissing what's already out there as standalone tools, stuff in clients can only ever be generic | 23:00:38 |
| @emma:rory.gay | though somehting like "disable invites" would be nice | 23:01:16 |
 Zhaofeng Li | I think some mod should update the title in the old #users room (!RRerllqmbATpmbJgCn:nixos.org), maybe via the API | 23:52:16 |
| Zhaofeng Li | People are still asking questions there | 23:52:39 |
| uep | absolutely did not mean to dismiss any efforts, what i'm being critical of is the ecosystem in which heroic individual efforts are both necessary and the only efforts seemingly being made. | 23:54:50 |

| @emma:rory.gay | im sorry for implying you were dismissing anything ^^' | 00:27:28 |
| @emma:rory.gay | matrix.org is working on some stuff but its taking time (as per usual) | 00:28:04 |
