Today Mastodon is taking another step towards its founding ideals: independence and non-profit ownership. We're transferring ownership of key assets to a new, European not-for-profit entity, ensuring our mission remains true to a decentralised social web, not corporate control. #MastodonNonProfit

Eugen's vision for Mastodon was centered on user choice, community, and freedom. Now, we're formalizing that commitment with the formation of a new European non-profit entity. Eugen will transition to an alternative role in the team, with a new CEO to be announced very soon. Stay tuned for updates on these changes.

@Mastodon "We believe social media should help users build bridges, not walls. " yeah right. The rampant fediblocking is nothing but just a wall. Mastodon just ain't go a valid alternative to big tech unless they seriously change their blocking and censorship policies.

@Apan Then go to the teams of the specific instances and not @Mastodon themselves. They can't control what instances block which other instances.

@Apan@mastodon.social @Mastodon@mastodon.social One wonders what instances you're so upset they're blocking 🤨

Wouldn't happen to be the Nazi ones would it

A right to speak your mind isn't the same thing as a right to force other people to pay attention to you. You can shout on a street corner all you want, but the other people there have no obligation to give you a megaphone.

Are you one of those "free speech absolutist"? Then maybe the Fediverse is not the for you, if you want that sort of experience you should go back to any of the mainstream social media networks where you can have that.

@Apan @Mastodon lol, perhaps Twitter or a Meta product is best suited to you, then you can be as 'free' as you want and we don't have to put up with you?

Everyone wins, yayy!

Everyone is entitled to free speech, but no one is entitled to a captive audience.

This is as it should be.
