Want to work on Mastodon full time? I’d like to pay a Rails dev for the next 3+ months to implement some auth improvements that matter to me but also just burn down bugs, make perf improvements, whatever is needed as this place grows. Remote 100% ok but need 3-4 hrs of Pacific time zone overlap, fair pay, meaningful work. #fedihire #ruby #rails #job

A beginner’s guide to Mastodon, the open source Twitter alternative.

Since October 27, when the SpaceX and Tesla CEO formalized his Twitter takeover, Mastodon has gained nearly 500,000 new users, effectively doubling its user base.

This miniature garden landscape sculpted from rime will be gone by tomorrow. After days of heavy frost, rain is coming this evening, probably bringing lots of black ice before things warm up.
