EDIT: DO NOT BOOST!

This post is nearly a year old, and boosting will simply spread misinformation. Mastodon now has substantially more funding, and has enough scale to handle its many users.

I would delete this post but my server is not letting me so I'm editing this to reflect that I wish for you to NOT BOOST!

---
Right now Mastodon is only receiving appr. $21,000/month through Patreon.

This is not enough to handle the 1 million new accounts that will be made this week.

Currently, only 4,720 patrons are donating to Mastodon.

However, if everyone chips in $2/month, this will ensure the continued survival of Mastodon!

Be a hero! Donate now! https://www.patreon.com/mastodon

Imagine trying to read through a post and your screenreader is reading "Here's my hashtag writing that I did for hashtag write daily where I used hashtag writing app on hashtag darkmode" (extreme example, but you get the idea).

There's no algorithm here where using, or not using, or using certain, tags will alter the visibility of your posts. They are only used as discovery aids, and people will look for the general hashtags that suit their interests.

A bit about me. I'm politically left, very interested in environmental issues, interested in science & humanities, an atheist who wants to live in a truly secular society, an artist & sometimes a bit outspoken. Supporter of Australia becoming a republic. Married to a rather conservative man so politics are rarely discussed at home.
