Cross-posting

"Cross-posting" is the automatic copying of posts from one platform to another. That definition does not include the simultaneous posting to multiple platforms from the same app, such as Twidere or PostyBirb. If you use those apps, we consider those posts original, and the following need not apply.

Cross-posting from Toot Party to other platforms is fully permitted. Cross-posting into Toot Party from another platform is permitted under the following terms:

1. The posts do not include platform-specific references, e.g. talking about "here" meaning Twitter, or including text from other non-Toot Party users verbatim (e.g. cross-posted quote tweets)
2. The account is at least semi-regularly monitored by the author, so that interactions from Toot Party users are not ignored
3. The account being cross-posted is owned by the same person. Third-party copying of content is not permitted

Moderated servers

Mastodon generally allows you to view content from and interact with users from any other server in the fediverse. These are the exceptions that have been made on this particular server.

Silenced servers

Posts from these servers will be hidden in public timelines and conversations, and no notifications will be generated from their users interactions, unless you are following them:

Suspended servers

No data from these servers will be processed, stored or exchanged, making any interaction or communication with users from these servers impossible:

Server	Reason
freespeechextremist.com	This instance has a rule which allows the expression of any opinion you like. It turns out there are opinions that were made illegal (in France, at least) to protect minorities from discrimination and harm and/or prevent historical events from happening again.
gab.com	This instance allows content and behaviour that is against the law in France.
hagra.net	Rules of this instance are too permissive regarding nsfw CW/tagging and don't prohibit xenophobic content.
kiwifarms.cc	Homophobic content were posted, a report was submitted and forwarded but no action was taken on kiwifarms.cc's side. Furthermore, kiwifarms.cc doesn't explicitly prohibit content harmful towards LGBTQIA+ people.
midnightride.rs	Deep transphobia from admin
prout.social	No rules, nazi content.
