Mastodon: Don't use "mastodon" or "mstdn" in domain names

Well, this isn't exactly "news":

Social media guidelines The name and handle of your social media account and any and all pages cannot begin with a Mastodon word mark, or a similar mark (e.g. "mastodoon", "mast0don", "mstdn"). In addition, Mastodon logos cannot be used in a way that might suggest affiliation with or endorsement by Mastodon.

But this is the first time they've included proactive reminders within the software.
