Things that Mastodon spam accounts following me have put in their profiles today:
• "Passionate crypto trader, let's vibe"
• "Full Stack Digital Marketer Consultant"
What a world.
@jwz Whenever I hear "Full stack XYZ" my first thoughts are always that one more push will cause them to crash and burn.
@cazabon I wonder how the admins deal with these when I report them as spam, since it's pretty contextual. "Digital Marketing Consultant" creates a Mastodon account? Sure, could be legit. But then they hit follow on "jwz"? Absolutely 100% a spammer.
Offering my services to the mastodon.social team as a spam honeypot. If a new account follows "jwz" and exactly 39 other accounts, just go ahead and ban them and blackhole their IP. I won't mind.
