#mastodon

Just arrived on our store: New soft enamel pins featuring the #Mastodon logo. This time, they have a copper finish. However! I have to warn you there will be another enamel pin design up on the store this week, so if there's any chance you might want an alternative design or both, you may want to hold off on making orders for now to save on shipping.

As more and more organisations and groups come to us asking how they can build their own app, a digital space dedicated to their community and brand, we wanted to introduce you to the team behind the scenes.

Our technical partners are incredibly talented and have worked with charities in the past, including a project by one of our founders who recommended we work with them across the Newsmast tech stack.

We're proud to be working with them! 🧡

I’m proud to share my first blog as @Mastodon’s Community Director. Well the first one posted under my name at least 😉

Digital social networking is one of the most important threads in the fabric of our societies. Right now, we’re letting that thread be controlled by social media platforms that let advertisements for scams stay up because they’re profitable, and that use their algorithms to run human research experiments on us without our consent. That’s not the society I want.

“By making the news and truth contingent on advertising budgets we’ve created an environment where any narrative can win, as long as the storyteller is willing to pay. If we allow these conditions to continue, we will leave behind the voices that truly matter; the people and their public institutions. It is critical that those voices not be silenced forever. The promise of the #fediverse is the promise of a better way forward: free from ads and manipulative algorithms built by and for people like you, where #SocialSovereignty is a right and not a privilege.”

In this thread, we asked folks to crowdsource a list of resources so you can find your local representative. Find them, contact them, and tell them this: if you care about a free and just future, and if you care about #DigitalSovereignty, you must leave X and join the fediverse.

Wieder #neuhier 👋

Tja, das war ja eine sehr kurze Abstinenz vom #Fediverse. Nach noch nicht einmal 1 Woche habe ich gemerkt das mir einige Leute mehr fehlten als ich dachte, bzw. die Interaktion mit ihnen.

Warum aber #Mastodon? Ich mag #Friendica wirklich sehr und komme auch gut damit zurecht aber trotzdem ist es manchmal etwas viel, ich will es für mich nun so einfach wie möglich halten.

Danke ans Team fürs freischalten des Accounts.

Moin.

Als die Grenze von zwei Millionen überschritten wurde, überlegte ich schon einen Hinweis... den ich mir dann verkniffen habe... nun sind wir aber bei drei Millionen!

Ja, auf der #Mastodon-Instanz mastodon.social tummeln sich nun über drei Millionen registrierte Konten... 🧐

If you're recommending Mastodon and the wider Fediverse to organisations, friends, family or colleagues, don't worry if they say no. You have done something really important simply by making them aware of it as an option.

Most people and organisations don't immediately try stuff they hear about. Usually they need to hear it mentioned by a few different sources before they actually try it.

By being one of those sources, you're nudging them closer to actually trying it 👍
