#Mastodon, a #decentralised #socialmedia platform, is introducing #newfeatures to attract creators and make the platform more approachable for newcomers.

🎉 These updates include a #redesigned user profile, an enhanced compose experience, and new admin tools for server operators.

💆 The changes aim to #promote #smallinstances and make the onboarding process more understandable.

Given that we’re seeing another wave from the disaster unfolding over on the birb app, I am compelled to inform all newly joined women and LGBTQs about https://toot.lgbt 🌈

We’re a small, fast and welcoming instance where all new joiners are vetted by admins (drawn from our members) and we take a no- onsense moderation approach to maintain a casual and safe environment.

Some questions people ask themselves about other Mastodon instances are:

- What makes this instance better?
- Is it really worth it to move?
- Will they keep it up?
- If it’s a tiny instance, how are people from elsewhere going to find me?
