Weâve made a few changes and, soon, youâll be able to see knowledge from across the social web with a flick of a switch.

A few weeks ago we ran a poll asking your opinions about bots & spam on the Fediverse. A 38% majority said that some features help combat bots, but it's not enough. When we saw our process automatically deflect the bots in the Spam Wave, we knew we could help. That's why we're working with other instances to build a set of tools for admins and moderators. If you're an admin or instance owner, feel free to get in touch!#fedidev #admin #mastodon #fediverse

Growing better social media can be hard.Many of the developers, moderators, and teams behind the projects that make up decentralised social media do it because they believe in what they're building. Projects which are self-funded, both in time and money then shared with you for little to no cost.So, take some time today to say thank you to the people behind your favourite Fediverse tools and platforms. We're sure they'd appreciate it. #Fediverse #SocialMedia #Mastodon #NewSocial #FediDev

If there are any major movements from X or Meta, we'll let you know here. #SocialMedia #Trump #Inaguration #Fediverse #USPolitics #Xodus

What kind of posts do you miss when you're on the Fediverse? It's not a shock that a lot of people who join the Fediverse struggle to find posts about things they care about. But for established Fedi-veterans, it's harder to know what is still missing.Please let us know what you miss and if you have any idea on how the Fediverse could patch the gap in the comments!#Poll #Fediverse #Mastodon #WhatsMissing #GrowFedi #SocialWeb #Sport #Politics #PopCulture

Pay or consent advertising is coming the UK đ At the Newsmast Foundation we oppose this binary choice approach to advertising which will, without doubt, affect the most marginalised communities. We hope that the UK will follow the example of the EU and block Meta from actioning this change.https://www.theverge.com/news/786313/meta-pay-or-consent-uk#SocialMedia #Instagram #Meta #Data #PersonalData #DigitalPolicy #Technology
