After almost 2 years at @Mastodon, it’s time to say my thank yous & goodbye ❤️

Since Jan 2023, we’ve nearly tripled our team, hiring 8 brilliant humans out of 1,510 applicants(!). I’m proud to leave this legacy behind.

From #hiring to #culture, #fundraising to donor comms, it’s been an honour building the backbone of this project!

Thank you, team, for this crazy ride — I’ll be cheering for you all from afar and have no doubt you'll accomplish everything you've set out to do! 🐘💫

With ❤️

Hello! We're the team that builds and supports Mastodon, alongside the community. Today, we wanted to share an update on our organisation. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/05/evolving-the-team/
Evolving the Team

An update on Mastodon’s core team and organisation.

I’m proud to be joining @Mastodon’s Board of Directors to guide and support this important platform.

I believe that #Mastodon and the #Fediverse represent some of the most important advancements in social networking design and technology. They have the potential to reverse the harms wrought by the monolithic social media platforms of yesterday.

But even more than that, Mastodon and the Fediverse can be so much more than what we are against. We have so much potential. I believe in all of our power to build and change the world. We start by building and convening in healthier online communities because our strength together is far more than the sum of our differences. I believe in building technologies that help bring out the best in humanity; I believe in the amazing things we can do and be when we work together.

I love Mastodon. I love what we are and what we will be. Now let’s build a better world together 💞

Our #plushtodon liked it so much at @waag it decided to stay there, so we officially handed it over to @marleenstikker
#Mastodon has had a nice little uptick in sign-ups and activity from #Taiwan after a facebook post recommending it as an alternative to facebook and Instagram for Taiwanese users went viral on facebook, bringing in about 20K new users over the span of two days to mastodon.social, g0v.social, m.cmx.im and a few more.
We had a fantastic session in Den Haag Nieuwspoort, meeting with politicians, policymakers and government site administrators. @mellifluousbox and #plushtodon on stage! #MastodonInNL
