Like many, we are devastated after the result of the US election.

We will be taking some time as a team to regroup, process, and understand how we can better support diverse and marginalised communities as we head into a new period.

As a charity, we have always believed in supporting these communities. Our thoughts are with them and the many people who worked hard in their attempt to prevent this result.

Our mission is more urgent than ever. Onwards, always.

«I think it's going to be more important than ever that #Mastodon and #Fediverse are not centrally operated out of the US unlike almost every other social media platform out there. » — Eugen Rochko @Gargron , following Donald Trump's victory in the elections on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.

#Twitter's revenue death is firmly sealed at this point. #Elon clearly has no interest in addressing advertisers' valid issues. His response should be brands' cue to depart. We recommend Threads, Mastodon, and Bluesky instead -, all integrating across the open #fediverse. Our team will now be leveraging Mastodon as our primary short form social platform. Have you left Twitter? What platforms are you focusing on now?

Daily Beast:
Elon Musk, Accused of Antisemitism, Loses IBM Ad Dollars

Elon Musk’s declared commitment to free speech on X has drawn fire for amplifying fringe and hateful content. And, as it turns out, companies aren’t thrilled when their ads run next to that material.

On Thursday, IBM became the latest organization to pause its spending on the site, after its advertisements appeared alongside pro-Nazi tweets.
