I think it's going to be more important than ever that #Mastodon and the #fediverse are not centrally operated out of the US like almost every other social media platform out there.

@Gargron@mastodon.social Especially now that Chump is going to get to play President again and hand everything over to his rich friends, I think it's imperative that Mastodon plays a more active outreach role / PR to actively pull users away from BookFace, Shitter and the likes. Maybe some high profile partnerships with other like-minded orgs to actively promote their fediposts? All the FOSS / GNU / open society types of orgs should commit to making it their primary source, while only posting links on other platforms and their websites to their fedi-posts. Elon Musk needs to dread his decision to buy Shitter, and Troth Sential stock values need to tank to penny stocks. I haven't used Insta, Snap or TikTok to really know whether or not I'd hate them, but their ownership and control are problematic enough to relegate them "to the dustbins of history".
