Can I get some folks to share my pro-bono offer?
I will set an org up with their own #mastodon installation, see my post for details:
Ok guys, very funny.
Mastodon the band has noticed my project, aaaaaaaaaaa https://twitter.com/mastodonmusic/status/849388922320949249
There are NO checkmark verifications on this instance or any other. People just put emoji in their display names for a joke
"Middleton remembers passing out from beatings and waking up in a blood-stained nightshirt.
He recalls being beaten for picking blackberries from a fence.
He was beaten, “lost count at 56 lashes” for failing to pronounce a name to a teacher’s satisfaction.
He was sexually abused he said by a child psychiatrist.
He was a child in state custody."

2 'White House Boys' share their experiences at the Dozier School for Boys decades ago:

Dozier was closed in 2011. Records indicate at least 96 children died there between 1914 and 1973. Many of them were orphans. Many were black. Five years ago, 55 unmarked graves were found on the school’s grounds by University of South Florida anthropology students.

The year is 2017. The door to Mastodon has been sealed. Those inside toot for survival.
Fav if you are an old-school Mastodon user from back in the day before it was ruined by hipster bloggers
"'Subtooting on the federated timeline' is a great piece of garbage sci-fi dialogue"
i am the king of mastadon
boost my toot plz
In a few months, many people will brag about being on mastodon.social. I can see them from here :grin:
Perhaps we can see a viable alternative to Twitter?
So instances are like subreddits with a public feed and this is like twitter? How will the reguar Joe get this..
federated social networks only work if everyone is running their own instance because you can't trust instances run by volunteers to stay up forever (or even more than a week)
@Trev thanks for some of the background/info you provided about mastadon, seems like a really cool concept so far
