On this day, twelve years ago, Mr. Evan Prodromou published the first fediverse post. We are very happy to see how far the fediverse has come since then, and are looking forward to join it officially once our federation is working.

Happy Birthday, Fedi!

Seeing #fediverse13 trending makes me happy! It seems appropriate that the fediverse is finally a teenager. I can't wait till it turns 30 and gets its shit together. Now we just gotta focus on teaching the fedi lots of good lessons and showing it how to communicate effectively and in a nonviolent way. Teaching it how to cook for itself, showing it good etiquette when its staying over at a friends house, like offering to wash all the dishes or grabbing a broom and sweeping without anyone asking.

Party Time 🎉

I hardly use birdsite for obvious reasons, but for #fediverse13 I can make another exception.

Our campaign today on this festive #fediverse birthday is to get more humans off toxic media. Here's my - what birdsite calls 'tweet' - via #nitter

Any missing?

I am happy to reveal that a non-profit legal entity for Mastodon, Mastodon gGmbH, is in the process of being entered into the German company register.

For context, I have been operating as a sole proprietor so far.

It's been in the works for 8 months but I didn't want to announce anything until everything was finalized just in case it didn't work out. Yesterday, I paid in the starting capital.

It wouldn't be possible without the help and advice of @mellifluousbox. More to follow in blog form.

Thread 🧵 of 501(c)(3) public charities you can support instead of the FSF, if you care about its mission:

Twitter is a website. Fediverse is an ecosystem

The Soyuz rocket from @Roscosmos rolled out to its launch pad today in Kazakhstan. It will lift off Friday taking three Exp 65 crew members to the space station. More pix... flic.kr/s/aHsmUcoKF4 pic.twitter.com/MEgU5c8xWj https://twitter.com/Space_Station/status/1379492851738931200

The joinpeertube.org lists white supremacist #PeerTube instances. One instance actively describe themselves as "white nationalist". It's not subtle.

What the fuck? Were you aware of this, @Framasoft ? Do you run joinpeertube.org ? If so, why are you linking to and endorsing a site that is actively promoting Nazis?

You may see some people on the Fediverse use Twitter-style verification symbols such as next to their names.

These are NOT verfied users, it's just a custom emoji which anyone can add. Because the Fediverse is decentralised, there is no direct verification system and these symbols carry no meaning.

However, if you are on Mastodon and you own a website, you CAN verify yourself as the site's owner using this tip:

Bluesky thinking of a "governance" body of the fedivers - If it does not have elephants running around throwing paper planes it's likely the wrong structure #bluesky thinking http://hamishcampbell.com/index.php/2021/03/13/bluesky-thinking-of-a-governance-body-of-the-fedivers/
