Welcome!
My name is Austin Huang and I perform moderation for both instances on behalf of Fediverse Communications LLC. This guide serves as information for prospective and current users on mstdn.party (aka. "Mastodon Party") and mstdn.plus (aka. "MSTDN+"), specifically with regards to moderation and best practices. This is a working document and may be amended at any time without notice.
Last revised June 12, 2025.

Please consider donating to the instances!
Tip
mstdn.party and mstdn.plus are generalist instances. Therefore, the majority of the content not specific to the two instances (especially regarding best practices) should apply to users on most other generalist instances as well. You are free to share this guide to other users as long as they are aware that the guide makes no representation of other instance's rules and moderation (however similar they may be).
