@drupal is trying to grow their audience in the #fediverse

"We're actively building presence on Mastodon and Bluesky, platforms that align with our open-source values. We’ll give it 6 months of effort and see if we can grow audiences, and then re-assess.

"If either platform reaches 5,000 followers, we’ll promote them to being a priority platform. We’d love to see them become our preferred platforms."

Help us get Drupal off the birdsite!

“This is what a digital coup looks like” shows that Carole Cadwalladr yet again understands the moment we’re in and is willing to say it out loud directly to the techbro oligarchy: “You are collaborators. You are complicit.”

This is your reminder...

There is no algorithm that brings posts to your timeline. The only posts you will see under your Home tab will be either people that you follow, or the boosts from people that you follow.

BOOSTING IS THE LIFE BLOOD OF MASTODON.

If you read something that is interesting, funny, thought provoking, news worthy, or beautiful, then BOOST IT.

Hitting "Favorite" lets the poster know that you liked it BUT IT DOESN'T LET ANYONE ELSE KNOW.

Keep Mastodon alive. BOOST.

This week, my employer (Lullabot), laid off 16 of the most brilliant, talented and amazing human beings I have ever met (though I was not one of them, and you better believe the survivors guilt is rough).

If you or your company are looking for a #frontend, #backend, or general #webdev developer within the #drupal community (or outside of it), please message/reply so I can make a connection!
