Seeing reports of CSAM on other instances. Are we vulnerable to the same? (midwest.social)

I'm not sure if it's just the larger instances getting the brunt of it, or if we've been quietly handling it in the background, but I just wanted to float the question in case it's something you have to be actively looking out for.

I would hate for this community to get taken down due to bad actors elsewhere.

Everyone is vulnerable, it's the nature of the beast. Even places like reddit and facebook. But admins are collaborating behind the scenes to try to work out how to slow them down in future.
