@emma:rory.gay | In reply to @uep:matrix.org re the invite spam, do any clients support subscribing to a shared banlist channel, like mjolnir/etc do, and enforcing that via setting ignores? Jo | 05:56:47 |
@emma:rory.gay | No* | 05:56:51 |
@emma:rory.gay | MADS is the closest youre getting today | 05:57:47 |
uep | pity | 06:01:18 |
Cat | In reply to @uep:matrix.org re the invite spam, do any clients support subscribing to a shared banlist channel, like mjolnir/etc do, and enforcing that via setting ignores? Element web does for timeline but not for invites | 06:01:36 |
uep | would love to have something useful to offer users | 06:02:02 |
Cat | As in it uses its own separate ignore system that has some major upsides | 06:02:43 |
Cat | Like that you don’t become totally blind as a moderator | 06:03:09 |
Tumble | I wonder if there are any users on the :nixos.org thing | 06:10:25 |
K900 | No | 06:10:41 |
K900 | Only the admin account that's shared by the mod team and Mjolnir | 06:10:48 |
Winter | was not always the case tho | 06:25:07 |
@emma:rory.gay | well, depends on the user :) | 06:32:35 |

wxnzemof | Hello, I think there is a problem with the new #users:nixos.org room. I see the room was upgraded, but I can't join the new instance. I get: "MatrixError: [403] You are not invited to this room. (https://matrix-client.matrix.org/_matrix/client/v3/join/%23users%3Anixos.org)" | 06:38:04 |
uep | wxnzemof: will invite you, sec. there are temporary restrictions due to a wave of spambots | 06:40:02 |
@emma:rory.gay | MADS for users that arent on their own homeserver
draupnir+http-synapse-antispam (+maybe MADS) for those that are on their own homeserver and want to enforce it for all users on the server | 06:40:55 |
wxnzemof | Thank you, for what it's worth it was not obvious what happened. Perhaps the room's description could mention this somewhere. | 06:40:57 |
wxnzemof | and/or a note on https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Matrix :) | 06:42:22 |

Winter | In reply to @wxnzemof:matrix.org and/or a note on https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Matrix :) feel free to add it yourself! | 07:11:27 |
Winter | wiki is user editable :) | 07:11:34 |
wxnzemof | Was hoping that someone with a better understanding of the situation could do that :) | 07:12:13 |
Winter | fair :) | 07:13:22 |
uep | i have been (mildly) reluctant to do something like that. In part not to draw attention of the spammers, either to reward them as getting attention, or to give them hints about bypassing the meager controls we have in matrix. | 07:21:23 |
