Mastodawn

I’m seeing folks from #Sudan on #twitter despairing that the site’s new limits, and its general m*sk-era brokenness, will compromise their ability to stay updated on the catastrophe unfolding in their homeland and share emergency info.

Once more: mastodon/fediverse needs to think seriously about how to expand to users in Asia and Africa and how to handle emergencies #twitterdown

@abshlimon maybe we need a matching service for people willing to contribute to hosting fees and people who can admin and/or moderate in these languages?

For anyone reading this who wants to make an instance for some part of the global south and moderate the local languages (including banning hate speech about race, ethnicity and LGBT+), I can help a bit with hosting costs.
