If you're curious how #Mastodon is doing by the numbers, the 2023 Annual Report is finally here. How large is our budget, and where does it go? Who works on Mastodon? For all of this and more, we've got an answer--at least as far as 2023 goes.

Mastodon #research 🚀
I’m working on my master’s thesis at the University of Vienna, and I’d love your input! My research focuses on sustaining long-term user activity on Mastodon, contributing to a more active Fediverse. If you have a few minutes, please take my short survey:

Your thoughts will contribute to meaningful research. Feel free to boost this post so we can reach as many users as possible. Thank you so much! 🙌
Users of #Mastodon and the #fediverse, ensure you do not use the Bluesky bridge. Kiwifarms is pouring in on Bluesky using Jesse Singal as a Trojan horse and the company just handed them the golden ticket. I will not use the bridge myself, will not endanger my friends here
#Mastodon eta orokorrean #fedibertsoa, perfektua da estrategia lawrenziarrak pentsatu eta gauzatzeko.
Oso pozik @Talaioskoop|en urtebete abiatu genuen bide honekin: https://talaios.coop/komunikazio-banatura-bidean/
Ez nintzen konturatua, baina #Wikidata|n pertsona edo erakundeen #Mastodon kontuak sartuta, #Wikipedia artikuluetako infotaula automatikoetan agertzen dira.
Bikain.

Inauguramos una sección de libros en la Tienda Undernet con el libro de @piracalamina https://store.undernet.uy/product-category/libros/ #undernet #mastodon #tienda #uruguay #libros
We believe the internet should be a place where everyone feels safe, respected and empowered to connect.
That’s why this #GivingTuesday we’re launching a campaign to fund a vital new role at #Mastodon:
✨ Trust & Safety Lead ✨
With the recent US elections and many changes to come, protecting our community has never been more important.
We officially kick off on *Tue, Dec 3rd* but if you’d like, you can make an impact today. Thank you for your support!
En el mes de noviembre hemos recibido por todos los medios de colaboración, un total de $2856 que significan un 46% de los costos mensuales de funcionamiento del servidor (luz, internet, etc). De esos $2856, un 58% son contribuciones mensuales programadas y el otro 42% son contribuciones esporádicas. Muchas gracias a todos y todas por la colaboración para mantener este servidor funcionando. Les recordamos que si quieren colaborar, lo mejor es programar una transferencia por eBROU de $50 que es la donación sugerida por usuario*. También hay otros métodos de colaboración a través de Ko-Fi, Mercadopago y PayPal.

* La donación sugerida actual por usuario, es de $32 (el cual redondeamos a $50 dado que es un valor tan bajo). El mismo se calcula dividiendo el costo de funcionamiento mensual por el número de usuarios activos mensuales que actualmente es 196 usuarios #undernet #mastodon #uruguay

Hello World :)
I am pleased to present you a small project that I have been working on these last weeks:
MARL (Mastodon Archive Reader Lite) is a small web app that allows you to explore in detail the content of your Mastodon posts archive, including attached files (images, videos, sounds), and with different search options.
🙏 Boosts welcome! 🙏

When I talk about the importance of going all in on the Fediverse, I speak based on experience.
At Opera we built a massive user community. When I quit, we had something like 35 million registered users and 35 million monthly visitors.
The new Opera management did not see the value of that. They believed it was cheaper and better to just use Facebook and that investing in your own community was a waste of money. So they closed down MyOpera and built a following on Facebook and Twitter instead. Then they got caught by the bait and switch when Facebook changed and you would no longer reach your audience, without paying. Later on Twitter changed as well.
This is important to explain to companies and institutions as they go shopping for social media sites to invest in. The best investment is clearly in your own site, being part of …

This is important to explain to companies and institutions as they go shopping for social media sites to invest in. The best investment is clearly in your own site, being part of the Fediverse. It is not even all that expensive to do. It may take longer to build, but at least it is your own.
Not saying you cannot build a following on those other sites, but your long term strategy should be the Fediverse with your own server.
We try to lead the way here and thus we build Vivaldi Social. Not just for our selves, but to make a point and support the Fediverse.
