In the continuing saga of my social media accounts

[flamebyrd]

I went to log in to my fandom.ink account with a view to using that instead of Twitter and found that account has also been suspended. No explanation was provided but presumably it was for inactivity.

Sigh! Are there any other fandom friendly Mastodon instances that people use? (Does this suspension mean that people using fandom.ink wouldn't even be able to follow me on other instances? I have no idea. Edit: The reason I ask is that the message I got from fandom.ink when I logged in said they would "retain some basic data to prevent you from evading the suspension".)

Fanglitch.space is good, run by thedeadparrot.

Suspended for inactivity is weird, though. People will still be able to follow you from other places.

Thank you, I will check it out! The signup page for fandom.ink says that they will delete accounts "without warning, at the administrator's sole discretion" if they have been inactive for 6 months, which is definitely the case for me, so I wish I had realised that sooner.

You should be able to see any other accounts on Fediverse servers that haven't banned you, and they should be able to see you (unless they've banned you from their account).

If that makes sense.

That does make sense, thank you! I should clarify (and I will edit this into the post) that the reason for this question is that the message I got when I logged in to fandom.ink said they would "retain some basic data to prevent you from evading the suspension".

bloodwrites maintains a list of fannish Mastodon instances on their website.

Thank you! I will check it out.

I also had this happen there. I use blorbo.social. If you remain signed in to fandom.ink you won't be able to see anything there; if you sign out you should be able to see accounts there and follow from your own instance. I don't believe that the email address is part of the account information shared between servers while interacting when federated.

Sorry it happened to you too! Thanks for the info, that's very reassuring.
