<h1>#FediBuzz Relay</h1>
<p>The customizable ActivityPub relay service</p>
</header>
<section>
<p>
Mastodon and many other ActivityPub-compatible services live
and breathe decentralization. Yet it can get lonely on a small
instance. Mastoadmins can bring the global buzz of toots into
the <b>Federated Timeline</b> of their small server by
following <b>ActivityPub relays</b>.
</p>
<p>
With this service <a href="https://fedi.buzz/">#FediBuzz</a>
provides relay endpoints for you to customize.
</p>
<ol>
<li>In Mastodon: click <b>Preferences</b> in the navigation sidebar</li>
<li>Navigate to <b>Administration</b></li>
<li>Navigate to <b>Relays</b> <code>/admin/relays</code></li>
<li>Click the <b>Add new relay</b> button <code>/admin/relays/new</code></li>
<li>Generate a relay address below</li>
<li>Copy &amp; paste into Mastodon's preferences</li>
<li>Hit the <b>Save and enable</b> button</li>
</ol>

<h2>Can I follow all my city's hashtags for all dates in the year?</h2>
<p>
Putting dates in hashtags is popular. We are aware, and our
solution is very simple: posts with hashtags that end in
digits are additionally delivered to all followers that follow
the hashtag without the trailing digits.
</p>
<p>
That means, if you follow <code>#dd</code> on this relay,
you'll also get <code>#dd1302</code>, <code>#dd1402</code>,
<code>#dd1502</code>, and many more!
</p>
<h2>Will this service get me undesirable content?</h2>
<p>
To steer free of the worst, #FediBuzz ignores anyone from
instances that appear in
the <a href="https://github.com/gardenfence/blocklist">Garden
Fence blocklist</a>, which we pull regularly. However, because
we relay links to content in real-time, this service will
never do any manual filtering itself.
</p>
<h2>Is it cool to follow a few thousand tags/instances to build my own firehose?</h2>
<p>
Please don't, it's inefficient. Take a look at #FediBuzz'
<a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/streaming/#public">federated
timeline API</a> instead:
