Mastodon forms new U.S. non-profit

As part of our commitment to supporting the growth and operational capabilities of Mastodon, we have established a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity in the United States aimed at facilitating our efforts, including being able to receive tax-deductible U.S. donations.

@w7voa John Mastodon is doing good things.
@w7voa ahhh the unpredictability of the German tax office. Love it.
@w7voa @Gargron I don't see any info here on how to donate to the nonprofit. Is that because it isn't set up yet?
@w7voa @Gargron Interesting. I didn't know that Mastodon has such a centralized organization.

@zillion @Gargron @w7voa It doesn't...

But there is a german gGmbH backing the devs.

@w7voa @Gargron Some of those board members are HUGE red flags… to the point of me immediately losing all trust in Mastodons integrity.

Like, the only way I can see for getting a worse lineup would be to include Peter Thiel.

@phryk @w7voa @Gargron

Very very much agree.

I mean ... Biz Stone?! That's not okay.

@w7voa

I smell the EEE down the road
