buc.ci is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

Here are three transphobes for your reporting and blocking education, complete with the comments they made.
Literally never buy adafruit. Not just will you be buying AI slop, but they will use any personal details you give them to dox you, if you say something the CEO doesn't like online.
https://digipres.club/@discatte/115588660312186707
He has literally been taking people's private details, acquired through their support of the company, against them the moment they speak out.
If you find his account make sure to report it and link to a post with all the details, and if he manages to find a permanent home, consider a #fediblock at them for hosting doxxers willingly. Help the fedi admins/mods protect the community from a cringe rich creep having a legendary crashout.
Also consider boosting this post, the linked post, or other posts about this; help warn people away from a very seemingly questionable company.
Reasons:
Whataboutist spreading of pro-genocide Hasbara memes without contributing to the discussion in order to hijack the original arguments
Most likely duplicate accounts created by notorious problematic propaganda accounts on this platform that have already been widely suspended
Attempts to suppress legitimate speech through accusations of ethnic hatred, or stating that supporting the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people means to support Nazism

Just a note, we have added the following domains to our #Fediblock list across #MastodonAppUK #Universeodon and #MedMastodon
- privacysafe.social
- privacymatters.pro
Both domains have had more than a few recent reports which no action have been taken by the instances with relation to misinformation / anti-vax content and in the case of the second domain transphobia.
There is a Mastodon instance that publishes content from its own PeerTube instance. These contents are narrated aloud, likely by an AI, in several languages, and are based on articles that appear online. Today this happened with an article I shared from my blog.
The problem is that there is no attribution to the original author and or the original source site. On the contrary, it gives the impression that the content was produced directly by whoever runs that site or instance.
This is completely detached from the idea of properly sharing information. Taking inspiration is a wonderful thing. Claiming someone else’s work as your own is not.
I contacted the account in question this morning. I have not received any reply, even though other content has been published in the meantime. A short while ago I also contacted the instance administrator.
I will wait until tomorrow morning. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will publicly disclose the instance and the related content and block the entire domain. There are additional details that I prefer not to reveal at this time which further worsen the situation.
This is not how we act in the Fediverse.
In the Fediverse we respect one another.
Let us avoid bringing improper practices here. You are free to use my posts as you wish. You can even make money by applying my advice.
Just do not take away my attribution.

Pretending to be admins of other instances and posting some heinous shit.
Never had the need to touch grass been so strong as with these people XD
Hey fellow admins, here's something you can do to make the fediverse massively better for anyone who's a woman and/or Black: ban "reply guys", mansplainers, and sea lions (https://wondermark.com/c/1062/) on your server. You know what I mean. Make a rule against it. Encourage other people to report it. Go into the comments of a popular post and proactively block or ban the people engaging in this behaviour. If a particular server is known to be bad for this because the admins tolerate this behaviour from their users, preemptively mute or block it server-wide. Consider public shaming.
Just because it's not outright harassment or slurs doesn't make it okay. It still actively drives people away.
If this is an undue burden for you or your moderators, your server is too big. Stop accepting new users and add more moderators.
If you know people on cologne.social who aren’t Zionists/genocide supporters please let them know that they cannot see posts by me and others who oppose Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people as our instances and accounts are blocked by their Zionist/pro-genocide server.
I can only assume Zionist/pro-genocide servers will not be allowed according to mastodon.social’s new server covenant and suggested as safe spaces to newcomers to the fediverse (including Palestinians suffering through genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid) but it would be good to have official confirmation of this.
It’s time for people (and mastodon servers) to be unapologetically unambiguous about which side of history they stand on.

It's main thing seems to be reboosting Canadian media stories, with an anti-China angle, spamming the hashtags Canada, provinces, cities.
I've seen far worse, but I don't go in for accounts that semi-impersonate some entity via bridges from flipboard, Bluesky, RSS feeds etc. If those entities want to be here, they can be here themselves, and I maybe I follow them.

New Hashtag just dropped!
#AISAM for AI Sexual Abuse Material.

@rysiek
Because let's be real, it's going to be out there now, including on the #Fediverse and that means it will be a reason to #block #fediblock
#Grok #Twitter #X #AI #SAM #Moderation #Abuse
What #Grok generates is non-consensual and abusive. It is not "AI porn", it's AI sexual abuse materials. "AISAM", let's call it.
Sex work is work, there are plenty of sex workers trying to make a living publishing their own works.
Conflating porn with sexual abuse materials is how we get to a place where independent sex workers get ostracized and lose their livelihood through being banned by payment processors, while a fascist oligarch can materially benefit from sexual abuse materials.
Just a note for some of the other #MastoAdmin 's out there - On Universeodon.com we've seen a huge number of reports for an account due to it being a new account with no posts and a very large follower / following count.
As far as I can currently see and based on the info provided when they requested an account it's migrating from another instance. As far as I can see the account is in fact legitimate but we will keep an eye as I appreciate it is "Weird" having a 0 post account with thousands of followers / following relationships all of a sudden.
If anyone does see anything weird with any of the accounts on the instances please do report it as it is appreciated. I can't directly reply to these reports so didn't want folks to think it had been entirely ignored!
CC #Fediblock
We're going ahead and adding `miniwa.moe` to our list of suspended servers across #MastodonAppUK #Universeodon and #MedMastodon as there appears to be no active moderation taking place and reports of transphobic behaviour have been ignored by their moderators.
I'm not expecting this to impact the vast majority of folks across our instances but you might see a follower / following drop by 1 or 2.

#FediHire when you are looking for a job
#FediGive when you have something to give away or donate
#FediBlock If you want to warn others of accounts/instancec to block

Well, the profile on this one is about what you'd expect.
Sorry honey I'm a cis het female stylized piece of DNA. With cat hair on my face.
FYI - Super fascist, women hating troll - VoxClamans - has another profile that I blocked/reported just moments ago. Do yourself a favour - search for profiles under that name & block them all. Unless you enjoy interacting with fascist bigots who spam people with comments like calling Francesca Albanese - a whore & just being a nasty, hateful anonymous troll.
This troll had multiple accounts. I've blocked every single one that showed up in past & present searches.
TIL the fascist xorg fork xlibre has a mastosoc account

Just suspended/defederated the zhub.link domain that appears to be a white supremacist/hate speech instance whose admin is going around harassing Palestinians and allies on the fediverse and is/was apparently also hosting an account disseminating CSAM (https://hear-me.social/@admin/112666731709559721).
You might want to do the same.
There are some anonymous conspiracy theory accounts popping up that allege that Gaza Verified is a scam and that everyone verified by us is a scammer.
Some of the outrageous claims made by these accounts include:
• They can’t be real because there is no Internet access in Gaza (there is, although it is unreliable and spotty).
• They can’t be real because everyone in Gaza is dead (seriously, one of them actually said this).
• And, showcasing just horrible and lacking of basic humanity these people are, there is a recent one that assets that Aseel (@aseelfromgz) – one of our team members¹ – is impersonating a Palestinian woman from Gaza who was murdered in Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. (This particularly nasty and personal conspiracy theory uses the image of a different Aseel – think “Mary” or “Jane” in the West – as its “proof”).
While we don’t post our verification videos to respect the privacy of our friends in Gaza, we did record the one we held Friday with @shahedgaza that Aseel was helping us run and, with her permission, are posting it here and pinning it to our account so you can see what our verification calls are actually like.
If you see posts by these conspiracy theorists (a few of them have “Linux” in their handles), please report and block them.
If you are running a Mastodon server and you allow such conspiracy theorists on your servers, you should be ashamed of yourselves. Please report servers that do not take action on such accounts after they are reported to them to the #fediblock tag so they can be blocked/defederated with on the server-level by servers run by decent human beings.
Thank you.

EDIT:
Tl;dr:
FediBlock mastodon dot cloud
W E I R D
I've become aware of something, and I need to edit this to reflect that. I'm not, however, changing my story or my decision, and I am in fact even more convinced that blocking mastodon dot cloud is a good idea, now, in light of this. Someone just told me they're seeing the same message in Chrome on Android. I asked them "VPN?" and they said no, and that they get the same result with Tailscale turned on or off. I tried visiting the site outside of Tor myself, using a number of different browsers, and I got the same message again every time. Frankly, this is even more weird to me now. Why would an instance not want people to be able to look at their site in a web browser at all‽ That's definitely not suspicious. /s /s /s
I think it's relevant to mention: I made this discovery by trying to look at the original page for someone's profile, whose account is on mastodon dot cloud.
As a privacy advocate myself (putting it quite charitably, lol), my public posts here are—please sit down—public. There's actually an option on GoToSocial to have your profile show no posts whatsoever, to include public posts. So I could hide everything if I wanted to, and I don't want to. I take pride in my silly instance; I want people to see it for what is, and then cringe, in that order and not the other way around.
Whatever they're doing over there is basic Fediverse functionality, missing, on purpose.
What this post originally said, prior to this update, follows.
Defederate mastodon dot cloud if you can, or domain block them if you can't.
They, in effect, block Tor but without saying it outright. Whenever I try to visit the site via the Tor browser, it automatically redirects to a page showing a message that says "We currently do not provide services in your area." which can be found here: https://media.mastodon.cloud/cloud-093img.html
Decidedly not respecting Tor is at odds with everything that makes the Fediverse so much better than the other platforms we all left for it. Ironic case in point, Reddit, a site where I will never make an account ever again because of how bad it is, has an Onion: https://old.reddittorjg6rue252oqsxryoxengawnmo46qy4kyii5wtqnwfj4ooad.onion/
That should tell you something.
Also, before anyone asks, here's mine: http://ultracrepidarian.pz6brg4ulhwpaf7wwhlpv3ush63zpntxuswi5mxgtswe33jti6oghbqd.onion/
I expose this instance to the normal Internet via Cloudflare Tunnel and I have their "Onion routing" feature enabled. If you look at the normal site either using the Tor browser or in a Tor window in the Brave browser, you'll see the Onion offered in the URL bar.
Included are two screenshots from when I tried to access their site via Tor, from my phone and my computer respectively. Not that there's any reason why there would be, at this point, but you'll notice that no Onion is being offered in the URL bar in either screenshot, and so that is, unsurprisingly, also not an option.
There is absolutely no excuse for an instance actively preventing Tor users from accessing their site. It should probably go without saying, but you are always more than welcome to visit my site via Tor.

Ewwwwww…block. 🤮 Edit: it would appear the whole instance is pro pedo. So admins may want to de federate with it and/or block it.
#fediblock @tallship@public.mitra.social for jerkass techbro behaviour. also has a derivative of the r-slur in their bio. probably self hosted, didn't check, but if it is, block the entire instance
upd: this dude is one of the devs who created an instance of fash software mitra so yeah nuke this shit
I swear to God Mastodon needs more control on who comments and being able to remove comments on our posts.
Posting an innocent image of my cats shouldn't warrant some random stranger replying suggesting I am abusing them because they wear collars and telling me that they hope I get "more disturbances" .
(I'm of course not inciting harassment on anyone, but I will not be hiding the identities to protect people who make public replies. And for anyone wondering, OF COURSE any collar my cats wear had a safety release.)

I recommend blocking the linked account and instance.
New account, single-user instance, no rules and no info, AI-generated pfp, not a single post or interaction, but follows hundreds of accounts across the fedi already
That's a crawler instance if I've ever seen one
I'd block the single user instance of pleroma.ra1n.digital (would be best to block all of ra1n.digital) as they mostly just troll the fediblock hashtag and be racist, like... KKK racist.
Their alt is over at freedombits.org which is a "libertarian" instance we also have blocked because nazis are allowed to do stuff like the following.
I'm super grateful to @iftas for all their hard work with Fediverse moderation.
