#Mastodon is again truly great now that it finally implemented quote posts, and on using them I realize that shipping with consent mechanisms *is* actually the superior option
Perhaps I still got to get used to it, but unwieldy #UX for quoting in #Mastodon.
The boost icon opens a new dropdown menu, with an extra click required, and changing post visibility leads to opening a full configuration dialog you must configure and save.
What are your default preferences wrt quote posts?

Just arrived on our store: New soft enamel pins featuring the #Mastodon logo. This time, they have a copper finish. However! I have to warn you there will be another enamel pin design up on the store this week, so if there's any chance you might want an alternative design or both, you may want to hold off on making orders for now to save on shipping.

Today we are calling on institutions around the world to take control of their #DigitalSovereignty, including their social accounts. Governments should communicate directly with their citizens on open platforms, not through the mouthpiece of a corporation.

I’m proud to share my first blog as @Mastodon’s Community Director. Well the first one posted under my name at least 😉
Digital social networking is one of the most important threads in the fabric of our societies. Right now, we’re letting that thread be controlled by social media platforms that let advertisements for scams stay up because they’re profitable, and that use their algorithms to run human research experiments on us without our consent. That’s not the society I want.
“By making the news and truth contingent on advertising budgets we’ve created an environment where any narrative can win, as long as the storyteller is willing to pay. If we allow these conditions to continue, we will leave behind the voices that truly matter; the people and their public institutions. It is critical that those voices not be silenced forever. The promise of the #fediverse is the promise of a better way forward: free from ads and manipulative algorithms built by and for people like you, where #SocialSovereignty is a right and not a privilege.”
In this thread, we asked folks to crowdsource a list of resources so you can find your local representative. Find them, contact them, and tell them this: if you care about a free and just future, and if you care about #DigitalSovereignty, you must leave X and join the fediverse.

This is a small personal instance of Bonfire in the Fediverse.
