my favorite thing to explain to new admins when they discover fba is explaining to them where it came from.

lol fba has not kept track of our blocks. GOOD.

@[email protected] Glad you asked. https://fba.ryona.agency/ it's made by kiwifarm people and it exists to stalk instances. We defederated the shit out of ryona.agency it's also terrible. Still, fba is a useful tool occasionally.

@[email protected] I cannot emphasize enough this is made by literal scum of the earth who would gleefully ruin your life given anything personally identifiable.

@[email protected] Just as a reminder kiwifarms is directly responsible for hundreds of physical harassment campaigns, at least 3+ queer people committing suicide from these alone.

@[email protected] anyway, back on topic. It's nice because it lets you see instances that block yours and it can be great for resolving old fediblocks diplomatically. But yes. The people that made it are monsters and that's putting it lightly.

@[email protected] Ryona.agency uses shell instances to bypass authorized fetch and retrieve things. I play a cat and mouse game of banning those domains. (Can't list them publicly because you'll never guess they also have a tool to spawn a new one when it's discovered)
