Tomorrow is the https://scholar.social Mastoversary! We have been online for an entire year!
I just paid the VPS ($107.98) for the next year, and I'm in a good place financially to do so
If you were inclined to give money to support Scholar Social, donate it to another Masto instance or another worthy cause of your choosing!

Why are people against Mozilla making "political statements" that fit well within their manifesto? That is absolutely their place to advocate for an open web within politics, as that is where they can exercise power to advance the goals of an open internet.
WANTED: #Perl6 Historical Items
New post from Zoffix! https://rakudo.party/post/WANTED-Perl-6-Historical-Items
Bryan Lunduke's message to Mastodon developers:
"If you're listening, we need an ability to move between servers & migrate an account between servers where people who are following that account get updated in some way to follow it on a new server".
The issue was such: mastodon.rocks went down. Lunduke lost all of his account data with it being the most followed (4000) person on that particular server.
How to address this problem?
