I appreciate the optimism, guys, but I'm fairly confident it's going to be Charles.
I don't know who needs to see this but this is my all time favourite photo of my cat.
Something came in the mail today. I can only draw one conclusion.
I get crypto #spam tagged on #Twitter once every other day. I report it every time and have to manually block them every time. It doesn’t get better.
I’ve gotten one crypto spam tag on #Mastodon this morning, and it was already removed before I clicked the notification.
Having real people that care running your community makes a difference. Thanks for holding it down @Gargron and team! 🙏
We're aware of the spam attack hitting mastodon.social right now and our full moderation and DevOps teams are on the case mitigating any way we can (incl. switching to approval-mode registrations)
Prior to Mastodon and the fediverse if you wanted to create a real and viable social media platform it would cost you millions.
Mastodon being well developed product that it is (thanks to @Gargron ) really and truly gives news orgs the power to run their own social site for hundreds to thousands of dollars, not millions.
The SMART orgs like @politico , @TheConversationUS, @texastribune , @texastribune and countless others took the risk made the jump and will benefit greatly because of it.
It's six months exactly since I first signed up properly to Mastodon (well, I had set up an account on one of the big instances earlier and then noped out almost immediately), and I have to say it's been the most fun I've had on the internet for a really long time. I've semi-drifted away from most other places, but I really like it here, and I hope it continues.
Thank you all for being your interesting, silly, thoughtful, entertaining, wonderful selves and making this place what it is.

You can now subscribe to Mastodon usernames directly in NewsBlur
@jeff @mark @franktaber @ruud @stux You can put username@domain into the contact username field.
I've been taking a bit of a break from some bits of the net the past few weeks, busy with work, and life, and getting organised for the start of UK LARP season, but I'm hoping to start filtering back into the fedi more now.
Have some pics of cute #CatsOfMastodon along with a small offering I made for a quiet #Beltane offering where I sat in the sun and prayed and drummed, and also a bee that I managed to capture mid takeoff from a dandelion :)
