RE: https://social.vivaldi.net/@thanksstevenkim/117154791519179296 A few people have asked where the “710,000 spam servers” number in my previous post came from, so I thought I should explain it more clearly. First, I should clarify something: calling all of them “spam servers” was an oversimplification for the joke. A more accurate description would be hosts filtered out as likely spam/noise by my automated filter. When I run `filter_spam.py` for the project, I get the following results. The script outputs in Korean because Korean is my native language, so I've translated the output here: The actual filtering results are quite long, so I've moved them to the next post in this thread ⬇️ #fediverse #selfHosting #activityPub #mastodon #openSource
