       did any of you look into who these VCs are who just allowed half a million dollars of their money to flow into the fediverse? surprised I haven't seen anyone talking about this yet.

       So $500,000 from Pace Capital goes to:Mastodon (in the announcement is says they get $300,000 of it) so that leaves $200,000 split between: IvoryTapestrymstdn.social A New SocialPeerTubeBookWyrm Akkoma FedifyWhich is $25,000 each if it's devided evenly
