Ukrainian president makes passionate plea to ban Russian athletes from Olympics Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a passionate plea to a group of 35 international sports and government ministers on Friday, urging them to push the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to ban Russian and Belarusian athletes from the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. “The Russian state has chosen the path of terror and that is why it has no place in the civilized world,” Zelensky said on the call that included U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Lee Satterfield. The call was set to deal with a simmering debate over what to do with athletes from Russia and Belarus with the Paris Games 17 months away and key Olympic qualifying events set to start this spring.

So, things are getting kind of interesting.
In the last few hours the new user rate has jumped from around 1000 per hour to more than 2500 per hour. While this is a big increase, it is nothing like back on Nov 18, when the average was over 10,000 new users per hour.
Still, this does feel like a new surge. Mastodon struggled back in November with the last wave. Let's hope we're ready for what comes next. Big shoutout to the amazing admins and moderators all over the world!
