• We publish our real-time system status, and strive for better than 99.99% observed availability.

Our registration philosophy

In order to keep junk accounts off vmst.io, we ask you to provide your intended use case and affirmation that you are at least 17 years of age. You will be required to verify your provided email address by clicking a link we'll send you, which will then prompt for additional hCaptcha verification.

In addition to automated systems that review your application, an administrator also manually reviews all applications for an account, so be patient while we process your request. If we identify your account request as a risk, we may decline it or request additional information before approval.

All new account requests that do not complete email/hCaptcha verification within 7 days are automatically deleted. All accounts that are created but show no activity within the first 30 days are subject to suspension, pending deletion.

Some servers are happy to juice their registration numbers with drive-by registrations. We want to set a higher bar and advertise folks who are part of our community. The intention is not to delete accounts which fall out of use, only to avoid namesquatting or artificially boosting our registration numbers.

If you join vmst.io and decide it isn't the best home for your Mastodon experience, you also have the ability to move or delete your own account at any time.
