Wow wait a minute 👀 the co-founder of Twitter Biz Stone is one of the board of directors for the new Mastodon nonprofit in the U.S. That's interesting.
So as of today Mastodon now has a US 501(c)3 non-profit entity to go along with their German corporate entity that appears to be losing its non-profit status for reasons the don't know yet. #mastodon#fediverse#newsblog.joinmastodon.org/2024/04/…
I've activated two-factor-authentication on my #Mastodon account. That means you can be 53.42% more certain that the nonsense written here is genuine nonsense by me, and not imitation nonsense.
I'm looking for a post I saw last night. Why, when I search for a word I know was in it, I only get search results starting from two months ago! #Mastodon
Laut Eugen Rochko ist #Mastodon der 2021 zuerkannte Gemeinnützigkeits-Status in D begründungslos wieder entzogen worden
& sie haben jetzt in USA 501(3)(c)-Status beantragt u erhalten.
Wenn das so stimmt, wäre das ein ziemlich fragwürdiges Signal für dezentrale open source non-profits in Dtl und Europa.
I wish we could define requirements for a decent replacement of #Mastodon (the software), and then find a way to fund a couple of people to work full time on creating that.
Perhaps starting with an in-depth review of existing options, to not reimplement the wheel from scratch.
I'd gladly chip in on a monthly basis for that kind of an effort.
Also, I am half-hoping half-expecting that somebody will point to exactly this kind of effort in the replies. :blobcateyes:
#Mastodon hat in Deutschland den Gemeinnützigkeitsstatus vom Finanzamt aberkannt bekommen und hat dann einfach prompt ne 501(c)(3) in den USA gegründet. Das #Gemeinnützigkeitsrecht in Deutschland lässt soviel zu wünschen übrig, dass es nicht mal in den wenigen Fällen funktioniert, in denen dieses Land ausnahmsweise mal weltweit führend ist mit einem Projekt zum digitalen Gemeinwohl. Es ist doch zum Verzweifeln.
Happy Saturday! Here’s my latest article on how to find and interact with your Flipboard federated account on Mastodon with a tutiorial video. I also help you get started on the Fediverse with Flipboard social. #fediverse#flipboard#mastodon#community#flipboard_user_group

Proposed bill in Alabama to allow the arrest of librarians.
No one is perfect—not even librarians. But professional #librarians are terrific. They're dedicated public servants, and they know how to library better than politicians do.
Co-founder of Twitter joins new Mastodon board of directors. Right, so federating with Threads wasn’t a mistake. This is just the direction Mastodon is going. Oh, well. Another Mozilla emerges.
