2023?

It's almost 2025 where I am

How about where you are?

And where does the money come from?

#Mastodon #Money


If you're curious how #Mastodon is doing by the numbers, the 2023 Annual Report is finally here. How large is our budget, and where does it go? Who works on Mastodon? For all of this and more, we've got an answer--at least as far as 2023 goes.

Yay! My #Plushtodon from #Mastodon was delivered today!

I was not expecting it until after #Christmas 🎄, but I am glad that @Mastodon was able to expedite deliveries for those of us in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸.

Thanks @Gargron!

Hmm…now I need to figure out what to name it‽ Mister Masto‽ Super Masto‽ Nasty Masty‽ 😂 I will not use the latter, lest folks think I won this from a Dirty Santa 🎅🏾 game! 🤣🤪


Masty the Mastodon has arrived!

I'm so excited to finally have this.

The #Mastodon stuffed toy is now available in the United States! This is a limited run of 500. Check out the #Plushtodon hashtag for more pictures!

Mastodon #research 🚀

I’m working on my master’s thesis at the University of Vienna, and I’d love your input! My research focuses on sustaining long-term user activity on Mastodon, contributing to a more active Fediverse. If you have a few minutes, please take my short survey:
👉 sosci.univie.ac.at/MastodonAct…

Your thoughts will contribute to meaningful research. Feel free to boost this post so we can reach as many users as possible. Thank you so much! 🙌

With our most recent update, creating and editing lists has never been easier in the #Mastodon web app. Lists allow you to declutter your home feed by organizing accounts into arbitrary alternative feeds. And there is some other stuff we may be working on to make this feature even more powerful...


“Amidst geo-political changes, organizations face dependencies on large, centralized communication platforms.”

Having written that, wouldn’t it be great if #Nextcloud added a link to their #Mastodon account amongst the three centralized communication platforms already featured at the top of their blog posts to help promote a decentralized communication platform?

(Points for having a link at the bottom of the page.)

In December 2021 I set myself a goal: Add a year-in-review feature to #Mastodon before the next December. It's December 2024 and it's finally, slowly rolling out. It's not all that it was meant to be, because we couldn't prioritize it over all the other things we work on, but I didn't want to miss another year.

#Wrapstodon


We believe the internet should be a place where everyone feels safe, respected and empowered to connect.

That’s why this #GivingTuesday we’re launching a campaign to fund a vital new role at #Mastodon:

✨ Trust & Safety Lead ✨

With the recent US elections and many changes to come, protecting our community has never been more important.

We officially kick off on *Tue, Dec 3rd* but if you’d like, you can make an impact today. Thank you for your support!

I might be late to the party, but the Mastodon soft toy / plushie is now shipping to the UK:

The criticisms from this 2022 article are still true today at the end of 2024.

The signup process is too hard and servers are too opaque for users to make good decisions when they come to the Fediverse. One example: some major server instances have blocked threads.net and *then* blocked servers that federate to threads.net. Policies are not evenly applied or even visible to users when they sign up for a server.

I spent the last year working on the Fediverse. Here's what I've learned.



The moderators of mastodon social continue to silence pro-Palestinian accounts, this time @ayoub

Mastodon doesn't feel like the effective and reliable communications platform you proclaimed a few days ago, @Gargron

Only 3 weeks until the 2nd edition of the #FediJam, a game jam exclusively for users of the Fediverse! During December, team up with others or go in alone, and... CREATE – A – GAME! Analog or digital, using whatever (non-AI) tools you feel comfortable with, in as little or as much time as you can afford. Everybody is welcome! 🙂

#Mastodon, we have a troll problem.

Increasingly I discover Russian sympathisers and trolls who reply to my posts with content I cannot see. I only discover these replies because other users react to them.

Attached is an example where @Gurre replies to a troll (pic 1), but I cannot scroll upwards and see the troll's post.

This seems to allow an attacker to attach content to my posts, without me being able to see it and block him.

I have seen this exploit a number of times.

@Gargron.


Nico podcast. BTW: It would be nice if you had a #Mastodon #sharebutton on the website.

There's a lot to say about the new #Mastodon version but the most impactful change for me so far is the new boost icon. It now visibly changes when pressed, while previously it would barely change colour/thickness, a difference often too subtle to notice on screens with low constrast/brightness.

#FediMeta #MastoMeta #MastoDev


Jump, jump, jump! Everybody loves content layout shift.

Really, @Gargron just happily releases this and nobody checks if it works? What happened to using multiple browsers to test? What happened to using CSS that works?

#Mastodon 4.3 is out! 🎉 We've made notifications easier to manage and improved the look and feel of the whole app across the board. And that's just the tip of the iceberg! See what you can expect once your server upgrades:

Why is this #cartoon from @jensorensen
so great? Because she digs deeper into what is happening. I learned this from her #Patreon page where she explained how this excellent article from Jamison @foser changed the focus from "privileging the LIE" to the history of the liar. #JDVance

You can get these insights too as a Patreon. Here's the link.

I told Jen if she gets 5 new members from #Mastodon I'll up my membership level. Go!

That’s great to hear! Welcome to all our new friends from Brazil—excited to see the community grow! 🌍 #brazil #mastodon #welcome


Na denn, @Gargron, viel Spass mit den Jüngern von
Olavo de #Carvalho dem so genannten "Guru" von #Bolsonaro .. .

Die hatten bereits Anfang/Mitte des letzten Jahrzehntes aus dem Nichts einen #diaspora* Server mit 25k Nutzern (theRealTalk.org) aufgezogen bevor sie dann urplötzlich die Wahlen gewannen.

Das wird bestimmt ein Riesenerfolg für #mastodon und das #fediVerse in dieser Runde ..
😮

Quick semi-related question: any news on when we can order those lovable, huggable #Mastodon plushies‽ Or did I miss my chance to order them awhile ago‽
