Any thoughts on zirk.us? I see several of my non-white connections on that server.

Match me an instance:

- non-white
- queer
- organizer/activism
- freelance writer
- fighting the right wing
- very low tolerance for oppressive BS

Do you like your instance? Is it well-moderated?

I appreciate all good-faith recommendations!

HEY HEY FRENZ on mastodon.social! You may want to MOVE to a new instance, very soon.

Why?  

Mastodon is a bunch of islands that can talk to each other. The smaller and more spread out we are, the easier things are to moderate. Horizontal scaling FTW!

All of you who fled that one site 🐤 ended up at mastodon.social for likely a few reasons. It was obvious, it was big, and it's where you saw a bunch of folks going.

But it has a long history of being poorly moderated, which means a LOT of instances are silencing or blocking it. Which means you're on the big island that SEEMS like it's "where everyone is", but in fact, it's a giant island unto itself (momentarily trending toward turning into a post-bird-site echo chamber), and huge swaths of the Fediverse don't talk to it, or even see it.

If you want the quality of interaction (and moderation!) Mastodon is known for, move thy funky buns to a smaller instance of cool folks you enjoy.

Ok so twitter has a site called tweetdeck which allowed me to schedule tweets in advance. Is there an option like this on #mastodon ? I run a daily #StarTrek quotes twitter account with tweetdeck and I'd be willing to set up a Mastodon version as well if I can find a similar tool. Thanks.

#Seeking: a #speaker with deep knowledge about the #RightWing and their history of attacking the #LGBTQ + community. We have an ongoing problem locally, and our community is eager for both context and background as well as strategies and tactics. My org has a small budget, but we do pay! I’ve already asked David Neiwert, but that’s not what he does, and the one lead he gave me never replied.
