Quinta JurecicIronically, the Great Banning is the first time that Mastodon has felt like it's fulfilling the role for me that Twitter once did—a place to keep up-to-date on a fast-moving event, where everyone is talking about the same thing

Mike Masnick ✅I've seen a few folks join Mastodon and complain that it's too difficult to follow people on other servers, with the cutting and pasting and whatnot. But @bramus has now created a neat Chrome extension (or bookmarklet, if you prefer to go that route) that let's you avoid all that hassle.
I just tested it out... by following @bramus with it!

This post is part of a series on Mastodon and the fediverse. We also have a post on what the fediverse is, why the fediverse will be great—if we don't screw it up, and how to make a Mastadon account. You can follow EFF on Mastodon here.With so many users migrating to Mastodon as their micro-...

Boris MannWhat is #cosocialca? Federated social communications for #Canada, structured as a #coop
In the word’s of original catalyst @evan —
I think my hope is that we have a legal entity, the co-op, that runs one or more servers for its members.
One server is pan-Canadian http://cosocial.ca with more specific geographic ones available as we launch them (kitsilano.example, winnipeg.example, newfoundland.example).
We want local communities, but membership is in the whole org
Welcome to CoSocial.ca
This is the future home of CoSocial.ca, an all-Canadian Mastodon cooperative. We will be online by late November 2022 so that you can have your own Canadian home on Mastodon—and help build this community together. We are inclusive and committed to building a diverse founding coalition that will jointly create the community vision, guidelines and moderation policies. If you want to be part of that process—or get notified when the instance is online, and ready for signups—please fill in this form. For more about this effort (including the experienced team of Mastodon admins & coop members who are helping it get off the ground) please follow the #CoSocialCa tag on Mastodon.
So with the return of “him”, I revise my timeline. It will be hours now.
