Excited to share our community vision for @Mastodon today: we are for the people. This year our focus is on ensuring everyone can have a safe and fun experience on #MastodonSocial and #MastodonOnline, and doing more to support and celebrate the diverse servers running #Mastodon, its forks, and every #Fediverse application out there. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/02/mastodon-is-for-the-people/

First, we’re sharing a couple of new resources for the #MastodonSocial and #MastodonOnline communities. They are part of our new Help Centre. These are living resources! If you have feedback or questions about them, let us know. https://help.joinmastodon.org/

@haubles@hachyderm.io Hopefully, the onboarding process will be revised so that @Mastodon@mastodon.social is no longer the only default instance to choose from, but just one of many options that new users are guided through in a short guided tour of the app when they first create an account, in order to determine their interests and needs and ultimately offer them one or a maximum of three instances to register with, based on the previous evaluation. This would be truly transparent and would further improve the decentralisation of Mastodon, instead of always directing everyone to just one instance, as has been the case up to now. #MastodonSocial #MastodonOnline #Mastodon #Fediverse #Transparency #Decentralization #Onboarding
