Just got some exciting news to share here at #Mastodon

After a good stretch running socials for @squads I’ve been invited to also help manage the @1kMadleenNL Mastodon account.

Am very excited because I love building digital communities and also supporting causes that deeply matter

Through small steps, real impact is built.

So, I found this quote somewhere on the internet about Fediverse server moderation:

> I can't believe I have to write this, but if you have no moderating experience—like, not even in a YouTube video's comments section—I would strongly suggest not starting a Fediverse server at all until you have help.
