@alice @AltTextHealthCheck @alice_watson I’m somewhat disappointed in my infosec.exchange family…

[cjust@infosec.exchange]

@hal_pomeranz @alice @AltTextHealthCheck @alice_watson I think that the last time that I saw this health check, infosec.exchange was at 50%, so it is getting better even if there is a ways to go.

How unexpected! /sarcastic

@MohammedHussein please don't jump on trending posts to boost your visibility for mutual aid requests. It's a quick way to get reported and/or suspended here, because it's a tactic that scams and spammers use constantly.

[mohammedhussein@mastodon.social]

@alice I sincerely apologize; I did not intend any harm or to break the rules. I am just searching for any glimmer of hope for my family and didn’t know what else to do in these difficult circumstances.
I would be honored to invite you to support my campaign if you wish. Thank you for your guidance, and I will make sure to follow the rules 🤍"

@alice "I wrote to you because I saw that you have followers, and maybe sharing my appeal could reach people who trust you and help save my family.
I feel shy asking this, but any support can make a huge difference

[jorsh@beige.party]

@alice @AltTextHealthCheck

Grats!

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@stuartl well, I think a significant portion of that 100% came from me, and I always write the best alt-text I can manage—because my friends are worth it.

[samerion@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@alice @AltTextHealthCheck Hey, my instance is at 76%! And I contributed to it!

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@MohammedHussein I get so many appeals to share mutual aid campaigns because of my follower count. Any trending post I write gets at least one or two (not to mention follow requests and DMs).

I do share and donate to *some* mutual aid requests, but *only* if I know it's a real person, that I know personally, or that comes with strong recommendation from someone I know personally.

It's the only way I can make sure I'm not directing my followers to support scams. If my followers lose faith in my ability to screen these requests, then they stop supporting the good ones too, and then even more folx don't get help.

The best (and really only) way to actually get mutual aid here is to be an active member of the community, build relationships, and contribute positively to Fedi.
