I am so incredibly saddened about this: The FBI is warning all synagogues in New Jersey that there is a credible threat for this weekend. I fear this is just the beginning.

I think we are going to have to collectively come to the understanding that for mastodon to work at scale, many users are going to have to chip in financially.

This instance is Black owned and Black operated. It is Black Twitter on the Fediverse https://blacktwitter.io/about #BlackTwitter

Should one be running their own mastodon servers? Was wondering if this is something that is easy to maintain and keep up to date, might be more resilient than using a hosted service.

You may be aware that there is something called the #Fediverse.

But do you know about all the different types of applications that run on the Fediverse?

I made this visual to give myself and others something to point at when explaining "the big picture".

You may be surprised by how many services beyond Mastodon there are to explore.

Download it for free here and use as you please:

That post also has links to all the different applications.

I’m new to @Mastodon, trying it out, seeing who to follow. Recommendations appreciated. Interested in #Digital and passionate about #WomenInDigital #WomenInTech

Amplifying for reach.

Can someone help answer these accessibility questions for new Mastodon users?

This is pretty important, and will affect if I can keep recommending Mastodon as a platform.

Even if you run your own instance, like I do, you have no #privacy on the #fediverse.

Only I get to read the direct messages received at my instance but I have no control over who sees the direct messages I send to other instances.

So, again, until end-to-end encryption is mandated by the core protocol (ActivityPub), remember:

Treat all posts on #mastodon / the fediverse as public and use an end-to-end encrypted messaging app like Signal if you want to have private conversations with people.
