Maybe being little more than a famous #NewYork #Podcaster #Influencer marketing play doesn't carry too well...
Remember: the "Forkiverse" didn't "fork" anything
It's always been a vanilla-plain #Mastodon instance, still running v4.5.6

The bile people on #Bluesky throw at #decentralized, #opensource projects just because they work differently is so disheartening. There are valid gripes to be had with #Mastodon for instance (pun intended), but please give yourself time to learn how the #Fediverse works before writing everything off.
Some instances are run by bad people. Hell, a few projects like #Lemmy and #Matrix are DEVELOPED by assholes, but the #FLOSS and #federated nature of these platforms allows us to bypass/fork them and create healthy spaces outside their reach.
Yes, it can be intimidating at first. You might even join a crappy instance by mistake, but these projects are growing and improving every day and I, for one, am always willing to help or give advice. The same should be true for anyone who understands that decentralized and FLOSS platforms are how we fight corporate greed and enshittification.
If you are passionate about FLOSS software and actual SOCIAL networks by and for PEOPLE, you have to be willing to teach others how they work, and why they're the way forward. You can admit their current flaws, but it remains true that the more people join these projects, the better they become.
It's best not to be anchored to a single platform.

The Fediverse thrives on community, so commercializing your presence requires a thoughtful, ethical approach. I just published a new guide for Silphium Design that explores how to sell products on Mastodon in 2026 without breaking the social contract of our decentralized space. We look at technical best practices and the sociological nuances of ethical commerce. Read the full guide here: https://silphiumdesign.com/sell-products-mastodon-2026-fediverse-guide/

I just spotted this @WhatLayoff account on #Mastodon 👀 It's interesting #layoff info for #job market analysis. I see a #GameStudio in there also (I'll repost it next). I read about the possible #UPS #layoffs last week due to #Amazon now relying on its own fleet of delivery vehicles for shipping.

🚀 How to increase Mastodon character limit WITHOUT forking!
Tired of the "merge hell" when updating your custom Mastodon build? You can change the 500-char limit to 7500 (or more) while staying on the official Docker images.
This works perfectly for Mastodon v4.3.0+ and @Coolify users! 🛠️
The Secret Sauce:
Instead of rebuilding the image, we use Docker Volume Mounts to overlay two specific files and set Environment Variables.
1️⃣ Backend: Create a local copy of status_length_validator.rb with MAX_CHARS = 7500.
2️⃣ Frontend: Create a local copy of compose_form_container.js and set the fallback limit to 7500.
3️⃣ Config: In your docker-compose.yml, mount these files and add:
MAX_TOOT_CHARS=7500
MAX_STATUS_CHARS=7500
Why this rocks:
✅ Update-proof: Official updates won't overwrite your limits.
✅ Zero Build Time: No waiting for hours to compile assets.
✅ Mobile Ready: Tusky/Ivory will auto-detect the new limit via API.
