Most mastodon instances blocked the bridge because the felt it was rape to copy their data without their consent. They made a few reports to CloudFlare to try and take it down

Yeah, but NAS and a bunch of other ones did it once the spam (especially of the CSAM variety) ramped up.
ah. and now most of the CSAM comes from Fedi lately lol
It always has, but it's already defedded for them on the old instances and if noone on their specific instance is following a new CSAM instance they shouldn't see it unless someone starts replying into their threads.
I got a few taken down this year my self lol
I saw you talking afterwards to one of the guys who hosted one of them. I have a sneaking suspicion they may have set up the introductions spam as revenge but that's purely speculation on my part.
