Working my way through the latest drama. I'm not on the "everyone should pre-emptively block" bandwagon, but I also don't need to wait and see with them. We know who they are already.

But signing an to meet with Meta to discuss the future of the is absurd. And the defense by a particular admin was telling.

There's a good chance I peace out and stick with my personal instance, because are gonna and it's feeling like less of a community these days.

I just got my first real taste of the power of . I wanted to reply to a post on the new instance & was lamenting the need for another social account.

All we need now is a button that opens it in your currently logged in fediverse instance. ๐Ÿค”

Okay, Mastodon friends, I rarely ask for amplification about my day job, but I personally pushed for my employer to make a big investment in enabling the fediverse, and I'd love for everyone to show that the support is appreciated. On June 28, you can join us for a (FREE!) hands-on conversation about how the Fastly team worked to support @Mastodon while the service was under a massive DDOS attack. Everyone who cares about scaling the fediverse should join: https://learn.fastly.com/security-mitigating-ddos-and-traffic-surges-with-mastodon @devs

thom,

@anildash @Mastodon @devs will this be recorded? I am VERY interested, but will be at a work event that day.
