This came to me in a dream.

We're hiring for a part-time position in Finance & Operations at @Mastodon. Fluent German and English language skills are a requirement. In terms of location it's a hybrid role so we're looking for candidates in #berlin or #vienna. I believe this is a rare opportunity to learn about the organisational side of technology non-profits and open source.

Junior Finance & Operations Specialist (m/f/d) - part-time

Support accounting, payments, invoicing, and cash flow in a mission-driven non-profit organisation.

Nice to see a Mastodon shout-out on The Daily Show last night, thanks to @eff Executive Director Cindy Cohn!

It's a longer segment, with some interesting nuance around social media and censorship later in the conversation.

A Redesign for Profiles

Sharing the design thinking for the new look coming to profile pages.

The problem with Meta’s business model is that they’re beholden to shareholders, not their community. We are not publicly traded, we are publicly FUNDED.

Mastodon has no incentive to keep you addicted. Our incentive is to make you happy, and help you build friendships, because it’s the right thing to do for you, and it's the right thing to do for humanity.

Yesterday, a court in New Mexico ruled that Meta is guilty of failing to protect children from sexual exploitation and harmful content. Meta's spokesperson responded, “we respectfully disagree with the verdict and will appeal.”

@zuck @mosseri - I'd appeal to you to stop exploiting people to line your pockets directly, but it's clear that the empire you've built by getting people addicted to your products has left you out of touch with reality.
