This domain is an ad farm along the lines of other known fediverse spam servers, with 45 accounts creating 6,500 posts per day leading to ad-laden web pages using content scraped and repurposed as news articles or blog posts.
The Mastodon service in use has hidden any local feeds, profiles, admin contact details, and exists purely to inundate feeds with posts that might lead to ad clicks.
