Today’s social media status quo isn’t cutting it, so Mozilla is exploring an alternative here on Mastodon. In early 2023, Mozilla will be testing a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. We will keep you updated, but for now learn more here: mzl.la/3BNXQMQ

Welcome to the #Fediverse, @mozilla! Yeah, let’s get moving! 💚🌱

"In early 2023, #Mozilla will stand up and test a publicly accessible instance in the #Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. "

"Now is the time, as we’re living through the consequences of 20 years of centralized, corporate-controlled social media, with a small oligopoly of large tech firms tightening their grip on the public square."

Excellent! I think you have a brilliant opportunity here. It would be great to have easy access to federated services that cover the whole gamut of current #SoMe capabilities including being able to access all platforms from one place and choosing how to share data with those platforms, if at all. I really like the #Mastodon set up of protecting posts by only permitting searching by hashtag.

That's fantastic news! Welcome to the Fediverse!

And thank you for making the conscious decision to use the word #Fediverse, instead of the brand of just one particular type of Fediverse server among myriad others.

I've assembled a short list of platforms available to choose from here:

Particular favorites for many are those of #Friendica, #Akkoma, #Soapbox, #Hometown and #Calkey.

Don't forget to checkout other Mastodon forks like Glitch-Soc too 🙂

I've been waiting for something like this for awhile. We need your open source, people-first mentality on this problem. I'm hoping your reach as a global partner can make Mastodon relevant to everyone. . . we need everyone working together on alternatives to this rather stifling current environment. Was pretty horrified to see journalists thrown off the bird while criminals were welcomed back on. . . Here's to an anti-toxicity internet.
