‼️ IMPORTANT CHANGES TO OUR SERVER RULES ‼️
In order to reduce the impact of bots on our local timeline we'll be introducing a new server rule from Monday 21st August::
"All automated (bot) accounts must enable the bot flag in their account preferences, respect #nobot markers, and post as unlisted unless making less than one post per hour."
In simple terms, bots that post hourly (or less) can post directly to the local timeline, but more frequent posts must be unlisted.
