The news of Elon Musk buying Twitter has put Mastodon into the public spotlight as an alternative social network, rapidly exploding our growth with over 30,000 new users in just a single day.Official Mastodon Blog
Just found out that the EU has an official Mastodon server it operates: social.network.europa.eu/about

As an alternative to FediTips, you might want to also check out @noelle's "Increasingly Less-Brief Guide to Mastodon":

It's got slightly different takes on many issues, but hopefully seeing a different perspective will give you a fuller understanding of how Mastodon works.

Erst dachte ich, es fehlen wieder Bilder:
Aber auf der #Mastodon - Seite sieht man, dass es eine #Abstimmung ist, welche bei #Friendica nicht angezeigt wird:
Muss das so oder haben wir eine Chance, solche Features ebenfalls angezeigt und vielleicht sogar daran teilnehmen zu können?
TNX
Dazu auch noch mal die Beobachtung zum #Reshare: Habe heute einen Beitrag reshared von einer Friendica-Benutzerin, die selbst scheinbar einen Beitrag von #Mastodon per #QuoteShare geteilt hat.
Mein Reshare von #Friendica ist nicht in #Diaspora sichtbar.
Es ist kompliziert...
I added support for #ecko and #hometown #mastodon forks to #fedisearch
You can now find discoverable accounts on these servers:
fedisearch.skorpil.cz
🇩🇪 #German Government has it's official #Mastodon server. I see that as a good step forward to using open technologies.
Here in 🇨🇿 #czechia we have only a Pirate political party, that runs it's official Mastodon instance.

Hi, Today I found your post when looking for #fedisearch and #SepiaSearch tags
I created a fediverse search app: fedisearch.skorpil.cz
It collects feeds from #Mastodon, #PeerTube, #Misskey and partly, #Pleroma
New ideas are welcomed. I still have several improvements in todo list (like better search query specification, instance searching...)
There have been many reports lately that Facebook is blocking links to joinmastodon.org
If you are still on Facebook, please keep spreading the word about Mastodon and the Fediverse.
If joinmastodon.org doesn't work, try posting a link to a reliable instance people can join. There are so many instances, Facebook cannot block all of them from being mentioned.
That Facebook are even doing this implies the Fediverse is on their radar, which is quite an achievement in itself!
